Pros

Interesting people, variety of work

Cons

Early industry specialization removes the generalist experience which is so vital in consulting, lack of prominent alumni limits exit opportunities, no focus on local work meaning a lot of travel, global staffing model is downside as you may be forced to remote geographies for more than 3 months per year

Pros

Good culture, solid pay, good benefits

Cons

Same as with most big companies. HR a little too focused on DEI and feel good inclusion initiatives over things that matter to most employees and clients. Top management messaging is generic and seems forced. But all senior leadership seem fairly genuine and good people vs. hyper focused on dollars alone.
