      Pros

      Work around extremely smart managers. Consulting work is a good balance of federal and commercial contracts (rare for the DC area). Role was highly quantitative so was able to obtain great technical skills and knowledge of energy markets. Decent amount of vacation days and company-wide social events.

      Cons

      Low pay for a technical role. Healthcare plan seemed to get worse each year. Lots of changes each year in group structure can be confusing.
