Pros

The people here are very smart and generally easy to work with. There is definitely a pretty good opportunity to learn while here.

Cons

Since it has become a bigger company, it has become more bureaucratic and difficult to find mobility as was once the case.

Pros

You have the ability to really ignite change and make a difference given it is still a relatively young firm with much of an feel Entrepreneurial

Cons

Given it has an entrepreneurial, that also means it does not have a lot of processes in place and you have to work extra hard to establish business as usual. You really challenge yourself but at the same time it's hard to maintain a work life balance and you can easily get burnt out. Hard to get the appropriate staffing needed for the workload.
