Pros

Great people to work with at the Director level and below Work allows for a flexible schedule At least the coffee is free

Cons

Compensation (or lack of) is not up to par with other firms given the amount of work expected Only Directors and above (and some VPs) get bonuses Upper levels get compensated, and nothing trickles down to the Associate and Analyst level Moral is at an all time low but MDs and senior management have no clue No incentive to work hard People leaving has become somewhat of the "norm"

Pros

It can give interns their first glimpse into Fortune 500 client work. One of the few opportunities that directly seeks after political science students.

Cons

I had a terrible experience with most managers. They had a tendency to openly question the intelligence and professional capabilities of interns; mind you, undergraduate and graduate students, which is the worst thing for someone in that stage to hear. When I pushed back on a manager who questioned my intellectual ability to do analytical work, I was labeled as combative and almost fired. As a result of my vocality, certain managers pretended like I didn't exist to them, something I still find traumatic in hindsight this day. I know other interns and externs were also openly told they didn't have the intellectual ability to perform their work at a high level.
