Vantaggi
OK compensation but simply blood money. Good on resume and to prove some base level of competence in interviews.
Svantaggi
Unprofessional. Deal advisory people are self-righteous, petty and glorified accountants. Think they are PE guys, investment bankers, or strategists. Umm you're work is an overpriced commodity. You're the tiniest stage of a deal. You over deliver work at low fees because you're a commodity, and then bash people on budgets, even after asking teams to do more work than what's in scope. Don't care for a minute about your life, family or well being. Openly curse at and about people. Don't develop people and bash when they don't perform to perfection. Love data people and even then, are treated like a slave. While now leading a team in industry, I'll never hire them because I don't support slave labor.
