Only if you are starving
Pros: If you want to build a resume or/and salary history, go there. Nice dinners during overtime covered by the firm. Benefits are OK. Vacation time is good (if you can use it). If you are really good in bringing clients, you can make tons of money.
Cons: Bone crushing boring work, crazy schedules, overtime (not covered). The key here is that the firm's efficiency is measures in hours charged to the clients, not some tangible products. So, the employees are destined to overtime, because this is how the partners make money. They promise you bunch of staff in terms of career development, but it's just talk. Most people work there for 2 years (or max 5 to get vested in 401k) and then go elsewhere.
