Big 4 Management Consultant

Hey guys, does anybody have any insight into Big 4 management consulting comp/work-life balance?

IB recruiting flopped for me so thinking about pursuing it since I go to a target for them. Also, any insight to what the recruiting process is like and what questions are usually asked?
