Great benefits, bad work environment.
Pros: Tons of time off, and lots of different types of people to interact with.
Cons: Very long hours, not a lot of recognition from management when you do a good job, but tons of feedback when something you do isn't good or is incorrect. There is very little work/life balance, because it is a client-focused company. Travel can be spur of the moment, and for months at a time, with not even a pat on the back when the travel is completed. Bosses can be very two-faced, telling you to do one thing while they do the other. There is not a lot of guidance, and instead they have you keep trying until you get something the way they want it.
