Pros

decent pay, good senior management, mostly ethical, nice place to learn some tools/ products, some very capable people inside, will perform very well

Cons

one needs a lot of patience, consulting is a sham, they don't have consulting projects and make you do pre sales work in that name, very manager dependent, huge politics

Pros

Good work environment if you can build a good rapport with your boss and with the client. Good training opportunities

Cons

Forget about promotions. Its more on contacts and rapport with your boss than actual work. One of the worst performance review methods.Bad salaries.
