Pros

- Pays Well: Competitive pay initially. - Good Benefits: Offers benefits like school tuition reimbursement. - Flexible Time Off: Flexible time off, depending on team bandwidth and workload. - Nice Office Space: Clean and modern office environment.

Cons

- Promotion Criteria: Promotions are based on a checklist tied to Business Development and Guidehouse Initiatives, rather than reflecting an individual's actual work or skills. - Pay Increase: Pay increases are generally very low, if provided at all. - Management/Leadership: While it's natural for people to advocate for their best interests, those in Manager+ positions should focus more on managing and leading effectively.
