Pros

I can't think of any. There are some nice employees.

Cons

"The Firm" as they affectionately call themselves tries to control every aspect of your life. The Firm only cares about making money anyway possible. They make you move all your investment money to them even if you are not security licensed. When you leave - they will do nothing to help you get the paperwork you need. Their HR and benefit department is filled with incompetent employees.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
