Build your brand, nobody is looking out for you
Pros: Good benefits.  Huge and diverse company with a range of opportunities and the mechanism to explore new skills.
Cons: Career development and guidance is heavily dependent on who your performance manager is, and being your performance manager is their 5th full time job.  Lots of politics and cliques across management levels, so you spend as much time working internally to keep safe/stable/ahead of others as you do performing real work for the client.  Cultural expectation that you work full-time for the client and then have one or more additional jobs.  Audit business weighs heavily to the point of complete risk aversion / paranoia -- also brings requirements and rules for your investments, etc. even if you are not doing Audit work.
