Pros

good pay while structure of teams is completely disjointed across various countries there's attempt of creating office culture by regular meetups at local offices good benefits? (haven't got a chance to test them but they seem to exist)

Cons

I joined a dead project where absolutely nothing was happening. Management kept saying that everything was fine and that work would appear soon. I left the project before it was dissolved. While on the bench, the company failed to find me a suitable project, even though I noticed that they were recruiting for positions that matched my skills.

Pros

Decent pay but you will be expected to manage multiple client projects at the same time in an expedited timeframe and are often flying solo. If you come from traditional consulting, these projects will feel insane and unrealistic to deliver true quality.

Cons

All about who you know, not what you do here. Expect to have to work at 150% capacity plus spend at least 50% of capacity networking. You will be constantly asked to deliver with unrealistic timelines. People (i.e. business analyst group) are constantly stepping over boundaries and claiming work others with more expertise in a specific area should own. It is a constant cluster mess and I (as a junior associate) have been on my fair share of calls where leadership is yelling at each other about stepping into each other’s territories. I can only imagine what occurs on the pure leadership calls. Lots of people in director and above positions are on an egotistical trip and have zero interest in the team’s ideas, knowledge, or expertise. You will spend many phone calls just listening to the leader brag about themselves for 55 straight minutes.
