Job Requirements
Amazing professors. Because of the small school size, it's
pretty easy to get classes - I've never not gotten a class I
wanted. Workload is tough - I definitely do work 6 days a week
and all hours of the night. Grading is tough, but fair, with a
lot of group work early on in the program.
|
Uppers
The people were the most important factor of all of my jobs. Having
responsibilty was also very important.
|
Downers
Slow pace of government consulting.
|
Lifestyle
All of my jobs in IT consulting had reasonable hours and plenty of social
events. My job with Booz was business dress. My other consulting jobs were
fairly casual. Diversity was strong in all of my positions.

Compensation
Base ~$80k. 10% profit sharing --> Booz Base ~$85k, 20% bonus, stock options
--> Informatica Corporation.

Advice to Jobseekers
Be prepared for lower salaries than this field used to have,
along with way fewer opportunities.
