Business Outlook
Pros
Experience gained quickly on project, client, and through long hours; great co workers; broad clients/ projects. Great way to launch a career, but one has to be very self guided and fight for training, development etc. (There are college hires who have not seen a training course past orientation in two years.)
Cons
Long hours - and getting longer, heavy focus on billable work (120% utilization is nothing special any more and won't get you a decent year end rating), very little going on in terms people development/ training etc. (no conferences, little external training if any at all, most of training budget is spent on ~5 standard courses around software engineering, RUP, engagement management).
