Pros

Pay is higher than average (excluding MBB) Interesting projects, generally Quality of work is high - high standards You will learn a lot Diversity and inclusion is strong

Cons

OW name not as recognized in the US Culture rewards selling, regardless of how partners treat you Burnout is known and tolerated Abusing your team verbally is punished with a slap on the wrist as long as you get more work for the partners Partners will sell projects they have no idea how to deliver and leave the team to figure it out Every Associate is trying to get promoted so they can punch out
