Play politics, great opportunities if you do so.
Pros: Fantastic exposure to multiple sides of a business, particularly in the technology (software and internet is a big plus).

Work with a bunch of different people, tests out your adaptability very well.

The work gets very interesting and bigger-picture in the Senior Associate roles, and everything after.
Cons: Like any other company, politics will kill. Firings do occur, and they are always watching. As other reviews have mentioned, a huge (and I mean huge) portion of success/happiness at this job depends on luck. The teams you are placed with, your superiors, and the general business environment will be the main factors in your placement there.

Oh, and pay is a joke relative to the hours you will work. There is no mathematical analysis that will say otherwise. It's just a fact.
