Pros

Gets you in the door with investment banks that you can continue your career with

Cons

Low pay in comparison with how much they charge clients for you, and they say your salary is xxxxx but it's actually a base salary of 20k plus a day rate, and due to this, I cannot get a mortgage because it looks like my salary is only 20k and the day rate is not guaranteed. I have also been paid incorrectly three times in 4 months and this has also contributed to me not being able to get a mortgage. Avoid if you can.
