Pros

The people. Most of the partners/principals are great. A lot of good opportunity if you volunteer for work/projects. I fought for & got a great flex schedule.

Cons

Salary is fair but I had to fight for each raise. Way overworked due to continual understaffing. Mgmt/partner wouldn't listen until I was burnt out & resigned. I'd go back but I'd draw more clear lines re: workload from the start.

Pros

Some folks are great to work with. Some of the leaders really do care.

Cons

Workday practice is a total mess. They have trouble selling work and hours are much lower than they should be so consultants end up spread very thin across multiple projects and still can't hit utilization targets on paper even if they are working very hard in actuality. The independence requirements are insane!! If I had known I would have to disclose all of my investments and be told wha t I am or am not allowed to invest money in I would not have taken the job. Independence is total hell and most consulting firms don't subject employees to those invasive requirements.
