Senior Consultant
Pros: Great place to start off your career as you get exposed to a variety of consulting projects. Learning opportunity is vast, as you get to work in small and large teams and learn through different management styles. Service offering to clients is also one of the largest, allowing you to try many different types of work. Brand is well recognized and you will have great exit opportunities, should you decide to move on.
Cons: Can be a very cut-throat environment, with extremely competitive coworkers. Work life balance is non-existent depending on the projects, but you are expected to work long hours and weekends to meet unrealistic client deadlines at times. Salary is not competitive at all, and you will significantly make less than your peers, if you grow within the firm. Experienced hires from competitors are treated like king and compensated at a very high level. That's the main reason why turn-over rate is so high.
