Pros

- Smart, highly motivated people who will help you learn to communicate tough issues clearly and effectively - Great brand and professional development - Access to senior leaders in your clients' organizations and ability to work on your the toughest issues they are facing - Frequent and detailed feedback process, including detailed reviews after every project - Work can be quite diverse - get a broad range of functional areas across industries and geographies in a very short time frame - a classic strategy consulting background - Fantastic benefits - including the best healthcare plans and 15% contibutions to retirement plans

Cons

- Very structured career path - limited/no opportunity for early promotion or additional responsiblity - Ambiguous and staffing process - with fewer interesting projects these days, the projects you are staffed on will make or break your experience; it's very difficult to work the staffing system to ensure you are learning skills/industries that align with your long term goals - Deteriorating life work balance - in this economy, overselling and understaffing projects seems to be the norm
