Business outlook
Pros
The company is an exemplar of the old boys' network. They get plum assignments that are very interesting, challenging, and prestigious. The clients are Canada's largest companies (mainly financial - big banks and insurance). Your colleagues are generally going to be very good at what they do.
Cons
Management's attitude is "We hire professionals - you shouldn't need us." What that translates to is "We get credit when things go well, and blame you when they don't." They pay you decently but charge your time to the client at ~$200 / hour. You are encouraged to work long hours because they charge for your time, though your compensation is salary based.
