Pros

Relaxed. A very easy going firm with very high fixed compensation Demands little and provides high work life balance only a non top tier firm can provide

Cons

Sinking ship clearly Partners are clearly non-performing and very juniors. Completely non inspiring. The whole firm probably has 25-30 REAL partners the rest are just senior managers delivering business. No real senior level connections in the industry Ability to place people in the industry is limited A real McKinsey and BCG envy with no ability to realize the growth ambitions
