Experience level: Senior

Do as I say, not as I do mentality
Pros: Lots of great perks from health insurance, pay for performance, spot bonuses, loads of vacation time. There are pockets of really great people to work with. If you find them, your experience will improve dramatically. For some, these perks will outweigh the long work hours and stressful assignments.
Cons: Poor managerial skills are tolerated if the partner or director is able to bring revenue. Overall corporate philosophy of a strong coaching environment, transparency around pay and corporate strategy and flexibility in work schedule sound great conceptually, but do not actually trickle down to the everyday workforce. If you are in an internal company role (not serving clients and doing chargeable work), I don't believe your job is ever secure (I have worked both sides).
