Pros

Some flexibility in working hours Good office spaces, clean and modern. Company strives to make positive change

Cons

Team is stretched incredibly thinly leading to huge work volume and unpaid overtime. Atmosphere can feel unfriendly at times. Career progression is stalled, not promoted on merit and have to apply for promotion in the firm as if it were a new role anywhere.

Pros

Strong work-life balance, competitive compensation and benefits, engaging projects, and meaningful, purpose-driven work.

Cons

Leadership is weak, communication is ineffective, and there are limited opportunities for growth, advancement, learning, and training. U.S. workplace culture has largely eroded, with little to no visible U.S.-based leadership in place.
