Pros

Room for growth and lateral moves if desired, transparent leadership, they walk the walk when it comes to caring about employees well being and professional development. Inclusive environment that doesn't put up with drama. Expectations are high, but so is the level of work. Offices everywhere means you're not tied to a single location.

Cons

Depending on project, teams, and roles, hours can be long. Due to the nature of consulting, travel can impact your life, and projects may change frequently (could be a pro or a con). Bonus structure and compensation tiers can vary a lot depending on firm performance.

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.
