Political, lots of beach time, and not so glamorous projects
Pros: - Smart people
- Great analyst program
- Training opportunities
- Good exit opps
Cons: - Was a Strategy & Operations Business Analyst out of NY straight from college - was on the beach for 11 weeks within the first few months.. this was the case with a lot of my other fellow analysts as well
- When you are finally staffed, you have little control over what projects you're staffed on, and are usually stuck with very not so glamorous work - in industries such as healthcare compliance, financial services, etc., and in roles such as project management, even administrative work at times (e.g., there was a project where analysts were doing processing work)
- The politics is hard to fathom at times. If the head of your client account is someone high up / influential, it's hard to get off that project. Also, when you are getting staffed, most times there is very little regard for what you want to do; if you try to decline, it looks extremely bad and your performance review could be affected
