Pros

Salary, good on boarding, location.

Cons

The management consultancy team is made up of project managers and people with little to no IT experience. The tasks you are given on projects could be done by anyone with admin skills. I have not used one bit of my 25 Yr experience since I joined. It's been a very disappointing move, one I wish I hadn't made. Stay away if you want to actually work in IT consulting.

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
