Really great team that allows you to work with a multitude of interesting clients and projects.

Pros

Very smart, dedicated professionals. Continuously impressed with the talent and global reach. Company senior leadership truly cares, but also very busy.

Cons

Practice groups can feel isolated. There are untapped capabilities yet to be realized by leveraging the full reach and resources of the firm. Be prepared to work long hours and on weekends.
