Pros
-Great name -Great benefits -No fear of losing your job because you can stay "on the bench" for months at a time between projects
Cons
-Have to do a lot of extra company initiative work to get promoted, but this just ends up being something to "check the box" instead of people doing something they really want to do -Salary and bonuses are tied to your rating, and most people get the middle rating of "3" -You're expected to work over 40 hours a week -You don't "belong" to any Principal, Partner, or Director (P/P/D), so nobody is looking out for you -"Talent" gets to make the ratings at performance review time, and they don't know you from Adam -I was part of the BearingPoint acquisition, and former BearingPoint employees aren't treated the same by "legacy" Deloitte management -Employees below the Sr. Consultant level are not eligible for bonuses, yet they are usually the hardest working group
