Pros

Involvement in various prestigious projects of different types. Friendly staff who challenge and are willing to help lower staff who have questions. Opportunity to explore different ventures which may benefit the company - such as web developing, programming, etc.

Cons

Projects tend to come from higher profile clients who have tight deadlines. Often times deadlines are not flexible - this leads to the typical office hours extending late into the night and occasionally on weekends. Company expects employees to also pursue additional training and development goals which will benefit the company. Large culture of social drinking within office.

Pros

Get to work on large prestigious projects. Has an international presence, with some opportunities to work on those projects.

Despite the holistic approach, your often left to figure out things for yourself without support. People tend to work in their silos. Upper management can be rigid, distant and poor at communicating.
