Pros

Great for career growth and building your career when you are a young professional. You work in a young environment with smart senior management. Your peer group will become friends for life. Their training programs are excellent and senior management really cares about your career growth.

Cons

Long hours and travel to clients. Local travel can be up to 90 minutes each way. Some members of management prefer to work long hours and enforce this behavior on the project team.

Pros

A lot of smart people to learn from

Cons

A lot of people leave. Utilization is also a dumb metric now with how much money they are dumping into their AI. Work is getting done quicker, hence less hours are being charged even when busy. Margins are consistently up despite hours being down so I don't get the need for higher utilzation KPI's anymore. On top of that, managers make you "eat" your chargeable hours to stay within their very small budgets now too, so utilzation does not really reflect anything meaningful anymore. Commercial consultants work 1.5-2x more than federal consultants but federal consultants are usually 100% utilzed because they must use the full budget despite the work not taking as long/as stressful of deadlines.
