      Pros

      Great coworkers, and the company really cares about its people as a whole

      Cons

      It's such a luck of the draw on who your manager is and the book you get. If you get a good one, you can there for years, if not, you will find yourself gone like the last person who had that book.

      Pros

      Very well run market leader. Executives have made excellent strategic moves to build a unique organization with global reach. Great culture. People are very supportive of each other. Lots of collaboration opportunities and you can accrete a crazy amount knowledge - too much at times. Opportunities to move around and start to define your career - after a few years and demonstrating that you've got the talent, drive and can deliver. Strong client focus. Strong financial performance translates to real bonuses, not paper promises that don't get fulfilled.

      Cons

      Very metrics driven. Some managers hide behind spreadsheets and don't really add much value. Occasionally, leadership goes overboard with numbers and loses the personal touch. Also, can be a bit stodgy for advancement and stingy on raises - until you get bumped up a level. This translates to great financial performance, but you need to be patient and take the long view for career advancement and wealth-building. Not a good place if you want to put your career in hyper-drive, blow everyone's minds with how great you are and then sell out to the highest bidder. Go work for a software vendor if you're all about the money. Work for Gartner if you want to build a career and are okay working within salary bands.

      Focusing on the client will get you through it

      Pros

      It is an excellent place to advise a client without having to program manage the outcome of your advice. A multi-year contract means you do NOT walk away after the advice. Pay is good - OK for a former CIO.

      Cons

      Managed by spreadsheet. The executive "leadership" team perceives themselves as the smartest in the room. If you enjoy existing as a human peg in a cribbage game, it is the place for you. Stay focused on the client, and you will survive.
