Steep learning curve initially, which eventually transformed into a mundane everyday life
Pros: The initial period was great in terms of challenge, opportunity to learn, opportunity to create and deliver value to clients. This was further enabled by the opportunity to work across client industries as well as service lines. The internal knowledge management platform is great as well, as it enables one to learn from experience of peers across the world, which in turn helps shrink the learning period and make it more useful.
Cons: Over time, individuals tend to get type cast into doing only a particular type of engagements, which limits their professional growth potential, while demoralizing them at the same time! Also, there were times when creativity / logical thinking was contested and there was clear directive to follow only "a way of doing things". Compensation and/or work-life balance was not amongst the best, while the appraisal system was slightly biased
