Pros

Honestly, there are too many PROs to name. William Blair really makes you feel like you're part of the family/team. No matter what position you hold here, others treat you with respect and appreciate what you do for the company. I have yet to be put in an uncomfortable situation of any kind. It is a very open and fair environment that welcomes the ideas and opinions of others. The employee appreciation throughout the firm is the best I've seen. Food, apparel, and firm parties for events/holidays all spare no expense. This is because William Blair has seen so much success, even through rough economic times. I highly recommend this company.

Cons

Haven't encountered a CON yet. I've been here a short time so far, but I don't see any issues in my future as of right now.

Pros

Great deal flow. Get to work on some interesting deals and you will learn a lot as a new analyst or graduate. Firm has some amazing senior bankers who are really good at what they do. There's room to develop if you really want to do it. But i can't speak for experienced roles / hires.

Cons

Office politics don't matter as much as an analyst but it's certainly there and you'll notice that. Work could be a lot sometimes (benched marked against investment banking standard) and middle mgmt. is pretty weak. And there's no incentives to fix that because it won't affect topline.
