Pluspunten
Good pay, good benefits, interesting work for some. Vacation and PTO is OK, big benefit is the every-four-year holy grail of the six week paid off sabbatical. Unfortunately, some never collect on this (see Cons below). Few ways to advance in Consulting
Minpunten
Layoffs coming out of nowhere seems to be the new modus operandi, which is just awful. Numerous employees were recently laid off or offered up to another company for rehire and essentially screwed out of what they thought were their hard-earned sabbaticals (major benefit which is offered every four years), let go with their sabbatical coming up soon. There is no reimbursement for this, and it makes one wonder if people are let go partly for just that reason...."wellll, we can avoid paying this guy the six weeks he thinks he earned by just letting him go a few months before his sabbatical)
