Pros

A great and open environment with many resources. Opportunity to be involved with many great projects and clients.

Cons

Room for growth is limited. One firm firm is the motto, but it only really goes one way. While certain areas are open to development others are close minded and not open to adaptation. People are segmented in cliques and are somewhat cold and not welcoming. Long hours is an unwritten expectation. Hard work is not always acknowledged.
