Senior Consultant
Pros: Global company, Well-known, good brand image. Good benefits.  Such a big company that there are many different career paths.  Working on weekends does not happen too frequently.   Culture of trust and integrity and giving back to community.
Cons: Bureaucratic and political environment. Very rigid in promotion process, very cost focused.  Does not empower employees with good laptops and cell phones.  A "self service" culture leaves many employees on their own to figure things out. Long hours during weekdays. Feeling of being "lost"
