Pros

- Virtually unlimited intellectual capital. - Plenty of opportunities to learn from others. - 'Small-company' feel within your immediate team. - Pay and benefits are at or above market.

Cons

- If you want to ruin your life by working 80 hours/week and never taking vacation, they will happily let you. - If you're not in a big office, and are not willing to move, your chances for significant advancement are limited. - Focus on profitability means reducing expenses at all cost. This leads to a lack of meaningful investment in the individual businesses. - For a company where the people are the product, they seem to want to get by with the least amount spent on its people. When employees ask for help, the answer is usually to get a temp or an intern versus getting a qualified full-time hire.
