Travel. Passionate People. Variety. Long hours. No Overtime Pay.
Pros: - Privilege to work with bright and passionate individuals
- Breadth and variety of work experience
- Occasional travel opportunities outside the GTA
- Great networking events
- Work experience highly variable depending on service line (may end up doing grunt work or stuck with same client for a long duration or could be working long hours with no end in sight...very high amount of uncertainty)
Cons: - Majority of projects are local projects:
(Pros: Work close to home. Cons: Possibly long hours with no per diems, no fancy hotel, no car rental, no travel points)
- Travel projects mainly focus on Canada:
(Pros: Travel to Canadian cities with no customs or currency exchange. Cons: Most Canadian cities are extremely boring places to be. You may have dreamt of traveling to exotic and fun locations but sadly that is not the case usually)
- Negative/toxic work environment at times due to lack of transparent promotion process and consultants venting (unhappy moods from colleagues due to no overtime pay + sub par salary raises are contagious and will make you unhappy)
- Poor coaching of junior consultants
- Observed highly unethical practices that cannot be disclosed on a public forum
