Pros

- Compensation is good for a consultancy (but not for a Financial Services company as a whole) - The Head of UK is a great guy, always there to listen for problems. Truly an inspirational guy. - Fun people

Cons

- Personally speaking senior management is a bit of a joke. - You WILL end up in a boring project that offers you nothing and you are learning nothing. - You will quickly discover that you are not getting better at anything. On the contrary! - They dont care about your career. - Hire and fire culture - Very very cliquey place

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
