Pros

- Lots of opportunities to work in and learn different tech stacks. - Your resume will (it should anyway) become very impressive in a short amount of time. - When you are not on a client project you are put on "the bench" and have time to do self guided training in any are you area you are interested. - If you are on a project that is not a good fit for whatever reason, you have the opportunity to be placed elsewhere with no gap in employment. - Ample opportunities for networking and becoming known to many across the entire industry. - You become an expert at getting up to speed quickly and being able to meaningfully contribute to a project in an expedited fashion.

Cons

- Bouncing around from project to project can become a little tiresome as you are constantly in "onboarding" mode. - Since many projects are only a 3-6 month engagement you can feel a little uneasy not knowing if there will be a new project for you to be placed at. - When you are being presented to potential projects you end up going through basically an interview process, which can range from a simple conversation to a full blown tech grilling with a coding exercise. While this is actually good practice in a way it can be nerve wracking. - You are expected to not only do work for your client, but also extra items such as trainings, meetings, presentations, etc. in which you are supposed to log and track for what basically amount to brownie points.

Improving Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We recognize that consulting comes with unique challenges, including moving between clients and adapting to different environments. While this can be demanding, it’s also an opportunity to gain diverse experiences, develop new skills, and grow professionally. Regarding recognition, our approach is opt-in, meaning team members have the opportunity - but not the obligation - to participate in additional activities outside of client work. These contributions, such as mentoring, community engagement, or internal initiatives, help strengthen our culture and business, and we believe they deserve to be recognized. However, they are not required for career growth or success within the company. We appreciate your perspective and are always open to feedback on how we can continue improving the consulting experience. If you’d like to share more thoughts, please reach out directly. -Improving President Minneapolis
