Great experience and learning opportunity but it could pay a bit better.
Pros: - Great clients and exposure to the industry
- Structured and fast career progression! Though it can get tricky at more senior levels, if you are willing to put in the effort and time you will find yourself moving up the ladder fast
- Good training opportunities, a lot of scope to take part in additional training and networking events for those who wish to put in more time.
- Good team culture - Most people are friendly, approachable and easy to work with .
- If you are asked to work a weekend or a bank holiday you can take this time back later will vary by client and department!
- Lots of socials! Get to know your graduate intake better
Cons: - Salary and bonus has started to lag behind other firms in the big 4,this need to be adjusted if the firm expect to attract the best talent.
- Work/life balance deteriorates quickly when exams are on and during busy season. For the rest of time usually a few months in the year it's a 9-6 job. 
- My department mostly has clients in London, although other departments have client mostly based outside the M25 and you could find yourself spending more time in a hotel then at home.
