Business Outlook

Pros

Development of expertise in multiple industries. Rapid development in project-based work. 360-degree feedback multiple times per year. A good work environment -- a social group of very intelligent, energetic, driven people. Opportunities to create your own path based on your specific career goals (e.g. focus on consumer goods, or focus on social impact projects, or try to develop your analytical skills)

Cons

Long hours, some limitations in terms of your ability to influence the staffing decisions made on your behalf. In the downturn, the performance evaluations are even more important, and the job selection can become more limited. Finally, some people dislike the travel, but I enjoy it. Some would prefer more "strategy" work.
