Pros

People are good looking here

Cons

Shallow organization - if you're good looking and talk a lot and are rude to people, then you get promoted. If you're good at your job and want to make a difference to clients then you get fired

Pros

Benefits, PTO, fairly competitive salary

Cons

Clueless and often dishonest senior management, lack of relevant training opportunities, lack of advancement, Burn-and-Turn environment, lack of long-term vision, people evaluated on metrics out of their control (eg., staff with no sales responsibility rated on achieving revenue goals on their accounts)

Pros

- People there are very intelligent, and often friendly - The clients are high profile - The work is definitely interesting - The office layout is attractive, and has an open floor plan - Higher positions have more flexibility with hours in and out of office - Casual work environment/dress - Ability to reach out to higher ups (CEO / VP / etc.) at any position

Cons

- Teams don't have time to train you (or simply don't want to), so expect to train yourself - Not a team environment in general - Work-life balance is horrendous (expect to work 12+ hour work days at least once or twice a month) - Takes too long to get key changes into place (managerial and administration changes are slow/not efficient) - Career growth related solely to team growth, not your personal abilities, and is very slow - As of 2013, company is experiencing high turnover rate of their most knowledgeable and often hardest-working employees, so lower level employees are delegated more day-to-day work rather than it being evenly spread out throughout the team
