Pros

I've learned a lot very quickly and am surrounded by smart, driven colleagues. Benefits and resources are great, and the firm continues to invest in professional development.

The workload is demanding, and with many areas of the firm growing quickly, processes can be undefined—must be adaptable as the firm grows.
