Given the timing of your post, I have to give some credit to the pandemic in terms of our work from home policy, and to life forces in general around wild swings in work life balance. And as a parent especially, I hear you! Both topics are areas of interest that we'll continue to focus on and evolve. Thanks for your feedback and take care. Maria O'Keeffe, US Chief Talent Officer

Pros

Interesting clients. Smart colleagues. Growth opportunities. A culture of caring about development and feedback and improvement, though there's not always time for this.

Cons

Work work work work work. Need to retain top mid-level talent more to push out some of the middling top-talent, allowing for smoother processes and better work-life balance. More office politics than necessary.
