Ventajas
Technically, if you sit there and do what they say, you get paid. There is a clear move upward, even if it means making your career there. Some good people work there
Desventajas
- No work/life balance - No appreciation for your time as an employee - Mediocre pay for hours (days last until 7, but at the discretion of your supervisor) - Uninteresting, arbitrarily done projects -- you'll feel like you're wasting your time while wishing you could do something else. - Lots of sitting around and doing nothing while they make you feel bad about it. I don't know which was worse, the days in which I had absolutely nothing to do and then was berated for doing nothing, or the days where I had really boring, mindless work to do that yielded no results because the project was terrible from the beginning - Management doesn't know how to give direction or manage - Advice to recent grads: take another job! keep looking! don't settle for this!! Keep in mind, this consulting company does not get good projects. When you think of consultants, you usually think of people who need to solve a problem that the company cannot solve itself. With these projects, the company can solve them, but they're just so tedious, uninteresting, and terrible, they hire a lower tier consulting firm to do it for them. I've never had someone say "I love my project." The best I've ever heard was "It's not that bad this time."
