Pros

Great place to gain experience, if you're already very experienced they will bring you in as an AVP or above, those people have amazing incentives.

Cons

No career path, people will not correct issues, ineffective management, not willing to pay for experience. Managers just keeps their heads down so they can collect a paycheck and not be bothered. Trying to change the status quo here is the kiss of death. Ever seen Mad Men? Yeah.....

Pros

Well established, well respected in the business, competent and friendly employees, good compensations, the company adopts innovations in design and project management, you can skip stairs easily if you show your talent.

Bad strategic planning and risk managements, opened multiple offices in some states then struggled and quickly closed them which resulted in lots of layoffs, hard to climb up the ladder.
