Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: former
Experience level: Junior

Manager
Pros: Good clients
Brand name
Travel perks (if you are travel savvy)
Office location (probably the best in New York)
16 weeks paternity leave
Competitive compensation
Cons: No work/life balance whatsover - if your project needs it, you need to work "25" out of 24 hours in a day. More often than not, you end up working that much since leadership wants to sell projects showing a small cost to the clients. Nobody cares if the team needs to put in extra hours coz they wont pay you any overtime money. At the max, you get a Bravo award ($50 or $100).
Lot of pressure when you are not on a project (bench time is the worst). Deployment WILL place you on any open position regardless of skillset.  Its purely body shopping business here.
Management indulges in petty politics and promotes those who are in the "like" bracket for them
Hard to move between practices
Glass ceiling - you cant grow beyond a certain role if you are not a sales person
Insurance premiums are probably the highest.
