The nicest firm that's in the worst kind of trouble
Pros: Great culture; people are generally nice and easy to get along with.
Cons: The Advisory practice is still being built, which would lead one to believe staff would have many kinds of opportunities, but this is not the case.  Management only cares about staffing people with relevant professional experience on a specific type of project.  In consutling, of course, you need to have relevant professional experience to solve client problems, but is this really the case at a level below manager?  Very few managers and above care to do on the job training.  So, you're out of luck if you are looking to grow professionally into a different career track or don't have much professional experience.
