Pros

- Helps get foot in door to many blue chip companies and fast track your career - Job specific training provided to give you the best possible edge against other competitors in the market -Paid training. - Unlimited resources for you to be prepared for the role. Both soft and hard skills. - Eliminates the common job search conundrum of " Need experience to get a job. Need a job to get the experience" - Great opportunity for international students who have little to no Canadian job experience. - Competitive/negotiable 3rd year salary with paid benefits - Amazing workplace/training environment with a culture that is fun and help you be your best self. -Regular checkups on consultants on site to ensure their satisfaction and career progression with the client

Cons

-No standard annual salary raises after 3rd year unless a request is made. -Dedicated account manager, perhaps locally, for out of province consultants -Out of province consultants are not compensated for the extra cost of living and are paid the same as others. -Account managers can improve on salary negotiations after 3rd year on behalf of consultants

Pros

Acceess to jobs with companies that may be generally out of reach for graduates. Is a good gateway company into the industry.

Cons

Have to be geographically flexible for first two years, family situations do not seem to matter. The account managers offer great support to the consultants while they are in the academy, however once you are on-site they begin to ignore you. Generally not responsive to emails. Threaten you with fines of up to £20K if you want to leave within first two years.
