Pros

- Working on CXO level issues and opportunity to interact with senior industry veterans - A unique combination of smart and down-to-earth people - A good place to start your career with a lot of hands-on learning - Typically, you get good support from colleagues and decent amount of responsibility at the junior levels (BA/SBA)

Cons

- Very less strategy work with too much emphasis on procurement/operations - Much weaker brand compared to McKinsey/BCG/Bain. The current brand image of ATK is close to Big-4 firms rather than the elite MBB club - Few exciting exit opportunities due to a weaker brand and quality of work - Too much travel (but probably same as other consulting firms)
