      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * opportunity to meet with senior executives from a variety of firms and/or industries * young workforce, very social * pay for educational costs

      Cons

      * lack of knowledge transfer * lack of clear channels/career paths for top 10% (the firm ranks each employee) * poor recruiting practices - seems a pulse is all it takes at times * poor leadership from the c-suite to front-line managers * bureaucratic * political * cost-focused service firm - budgets for discretionary expenses (business lunches, conferences) are minimal, almost non-existant * lots of arrogant, pompous consultants

      Pros

      There are great opportunites. Know your passion and put your hand up.

      Cons

      Much more "sales" focused than it used to be (it used to be "professional" focused).

      Pros

      Diverse place to work, so even if you are not one of the "cool" kids, you will find friends and people to work with.

      Cons

      The management makes no secret about picking favorites among the employees. The ones who aren't "cool" are treated in a cold manner while the "in" crowd is showered with rewards, promotions, and connections.
