A great learning environment if you can handle the hours and politics
Pros: Varied job responsibilities, exposure to multiple industries. Provides a good financial grounding and is an excellent learning environment. Social aspects of the job and the people you work with are the factors that keep you walking in the door each day. Senior management and partners are generally responsive to feedback and always help where possible
Cons: Long hours, compensation usually in line with or lagging behind market rates. Lack of non-financial praise and rewards system is a gripe by many. The office politics can be annoying. Generally the focus is on hours and not on results which is a disappointing mindset, especially for a professional services firm
