Pros

You get paid for 40 hours and work 45.

Cons

Assistants support 4 or more people without regard on workload presented by direct support. In addition to general duties which is a 40 work week, assistants do invoicing, marketing data entry, perform complex client interview scheduling. Annual review process is brutal. Work free OT b/c you need advance permission for OT and OT is looked at as time management ding. Oh, salaries for support staff is capped so after a few years no cost of living increase (not that 2% for superior performance was cost of living),

Pros

Smart people, entrepreneurial environment. Lots of freedom and autonomy to do work. Management trusts people to do the right thing

Cons

Can be stressful, long hours. Hard to succeed in a firm services role if you don't come back from a consulting background.

Pros

You will work with some of the sharpest, most career-minded young people you will meet in a business career. Definitely a proud legacy from Booz & Co. Now that it is part of PWC, you will have a amazing network of knowledgeable people on literally any topic, which builds a lot of opportunities. And the pay is first-rate, especially from year 2 to year 10 in experience.

Cons

Hours are long, on purpose, for many levels. 1am phone meetings, 48-hour-straight proposal sessions: SOP. I found the Strategy&/PwC environment generally toxic to technical folks, career-wise. It's not even a cultural or personal thing: the strict up-or-out culture doesn't allow time to transition from an engineering or architecture orientation to the hardnosed business environment, and just leads to a lot of drop-outs at the manager level and above, long before the pre-partner nominations. My advice: no MBA, no way.
