Pros
- your background is irrelevant making the company a good starting point to move on in consulting
Cons
-because your background is irrelevant, you often know nothing about the industry but are expected to be a specialist. So even if you really don't know something, your managers tell you you're a specialist - no choaching. every project is like reinventing the wheel. You spend most of your time at the desk, in the dark. There isn't even a training manual that could calrify all the acronyms the company uses. When you tell someone you don't know how to do something they often tell you that because you are smart you should be able to figure it out. Flattery is nice but it doesn't cut it -the quality of many projects is questionable. - I feel like I'm wasting my time because the company has no plan for me.
