Pros

good pay and good breakroom

Cons

The leader at my location is effective as everyone is wondering when they will be on the "wrong side" of things and be the next to be coldly escorted to the door. People disappear suddenly. There is NO work life balance. It is work...and work. Old work ethic of needing to work 10-12 hour days and sacrifice family if you are "effective" at your job.

50/50 Shot at Having Supportive Leadership or Environment

Pros

Some freedom and autonomy Passionate colleagues Experience with a variety of industries

Cons

Internal politics Using "entrepreneurial" as a code for "unorganized and no internal support structure." Consistently rewarding bad behavior for short sighted decisions (see: bonus structure that incentivizes taking on and keeping risky clients just to fulfill numbers)
