Pros: They do have open positions for newly graduated college students. The pay is at least on par with large consulting firms. They do provide a severance package on being laid off, with strings attached.

Cons: They have major layoffs and hiring drives seemingly every 2-3 years. You, your manager, and everyone else are treated like a number. Top management is requiring RTO, but also closing down offices and terminating most roles at said offices, so they are basically setting you up for failure.
