Vantaggi
I suppose this is not the worst place to start your career. In consulting, you will learn things while enjoying a decent work/life balance.
Svantaggi
Massive corporate structure that uses many processes that make very little sense. Managers seem distant and detached. Computer/network problems occur at bare minimum once a month, necessitating a call to the help desk in India. For a technology company, this is embarrassing. Insanely little care for secure passwords. The quarterly emails from management always make me laugh by how little they inspire. (But maybe I am alone in not getting rallied up by talk of EBITDA). Maybe these people are good managers, but they sure are not good leaders. In terms of promotions, it seems like once you're in, you're unlikely to get promoted. They'd rather bring in outside talent and simply give you more responsibility with the same pay.
