Pros

Lots of travel (if you're into that) Pay is better than governmental which I eventually went to There used to be time in the summer to relax but many offices started pushing for excessive summer work as well. I've been out for awhile so I'm not sure if that changed. It's a well known company and it's good to come in, do two years, and move onto something long term.

Cons

Lots of travel (if you have a life outside of work) Pay isn't so good if you figure out your per hour rate (and counting all hours really worked, not just hours booked) They promote work life balance but in reality it all comes down to getting the work done. At first you can pull off a balance until they see that you're handling things alright and then dump more on you. Eventually the balance isn't there anymore. That's when many, like myself, move on.

Pros

If you are in the right team, with good seniors and good managers you will have a good time with the work. Hybrid was a very nice touch, they were pretty good about allowing you your two days at home if you wanted them. Benefits were decent

Cons

Very, very team dependent. A ton of seniors seriously don't want to teach at all. I remember coming up, and even after I was a senior, listening to people complain so much that they got a first year, and they did not want to teach them or didn't have time to. Its a huge popularity contest on if you get good jobs or not. Partners will make you work the most crap jobs and keep all the good jobs for their favorites. They use and abuse people so often. Got laid off 1 day after the busy season.
