Consultant
Pros: You will have a lot of autonomy over your performance and network, if you work extremely hard against all odds and fits in well with the personality of the firm, you will thrive. You have control over your career trajectory and for the most part promotions are correlated with performance
Cons: You will notice the leaders at Deloitte have a specific profile / personality / aura. If you share those qualities, you will be highly valued and deemed "partner track", which will contribute to the great success in the firm.  However, if you don't share those qualities, you will be escalating at a much slower pace with less attention. With that said, whether you want to "fit in" or be of that nature is completely up to you. I know people that hate pretending to be part of the "club" but they will do it for the network / favours / advantage. 

They hire industry people with MBA but lack substantial experience and qualification at a higher pay. It's very discouraging for people that are organically  grown within the firm but not much we can do. 

Pay is very low compared to industry standard. It's not the lowest I have heard in big 4 but definitely not enough to incentivize people to stay or grow
