Pros

The firm is growing steadily, leading to improved project diversity and relocation opportunities. Comp is also competitive.

Cons

WLB is very poor. The culture is one of chest pumping where high sellers walk on water and are tolerated when breaking company policies. Further, any weakness, grievences or doubts in direction must be hidden and whispered about in private as there is no safety in speaking up.

Everyone is willing to help and support one another, creating a highly collaborative environment. It's a great place to start your career because of the amount of knowledge, mentorship, and guidance available.

Work hours can be quite taxing - as is expected in consulting.
