Pros

The environment is fun and entertaining. Staff employees typically go to happy hours during the week and develop relationships outside of work. Aside from the employee relations, the work itself it not too challenging and I believe you get paid well for what you do - it is by no means I-Banking. The company allows for you to determine how to balance your work life and you get rewarded depending on where you put the fulcrum on the scale (i.e. some employees come in around 10 and leave at 6 others put in 10 - 12 days every day and get the promotions).

Cons

The company has instilled no loyalty among the staff level. Management constantly tell staff "this is a great place to start" hinting that they (staff employees) will be changing companies or careers in the short run. With comes no real career track. The work itself is not too challenging which allows from some of the employees to coast within the company not putting in too many hours. There are no opportunities to really go into the market and try the challenges of selling work or developing business relationships. Overall, the company does not foster a place you would be loyal to and would challenge you each day.

Pros

There is alot of small perks around my office, such as star bucks coffee, free snacks and whenever you are working late you get to expense your dinners. The experience of the work and what you learn I beleive is also extremely valuable which I beleive will help here and/or at future endeavors.

Cons

The hours are all over the place, I never know when I am going to get out of work. One week I could get out at a reasonable time say around 6-630 and other weeks I work till midnight. I don't beleive you are fully compensated for these long hours.

Pros

Tremendous upward mobility, fun working environment, helpful senior management. In any consulting environment, I call the progression to Managing Director/Partner a guantlet. Its a tough road to the top, but once their I think its a very nice lifestyle...most senior MD's pull down $500k+, and barely crack a 40 hr work week.

Cons

Long hours, small bonus, pay discrepancy between MBA/undergrad at senior associate level
