Employment status: former

Just another one of the many in the Washington area
Pros: Name recognition on the resume, ability to use the "methods" and have hands on experience in a variety of activities, diverse client base, interesting projects
Cons: Culture accepting of poor behavior if it means more revenue; cookbook type of consulting - have the rookie read the cookbook and he is now a subject matter expert; work-life balance is not there - the organization runs on billable hours and volunteers to manage it; utilization target and calculations are insane (eg, you can take vacation and training - but make up the hours...kind of like advanced comp time rather than real vacation)
