If you think you'll avoid office politics working for a consultant, I think you're wrong twice. First, you mentioned it's a firm - there'll be politics there, just a different kind than you're used to. You'll also get pulled into it at your clients' offices, even if you're not fully aware of it. I think it's a pretty rare company that hires consultants and everybody there takes everything the consultant says at face value.
Another con for conslutting might be, if you're passionate anyway, that they'll reject your advice out of hand. That stings badly enough, but if they're annoyed enough you might get to be on the receiving end of a rant to boot. I'm sure there's more, but that's just what I thought of. What about things like health care? Everything more or less the same there?
