Good place to start a career
Pros: brand recognition for the next job; exposure to different companies and functions which is helpful as you consider your career; broadens your professional network as long as you are good at keeping up contacts from previous engagements
Cons: Long hours especially during busy season and there's no way around it; very large practice so really need to either find a good mentor or spend a lot of time smoozing to get yourself known; compensation is not great if you factor in the hours worked - can do much better in industry or eventually work for a client
