Pros

Good clients, good staff. Nice office and good working enviornment. More casual atmosphere. Fair compensation. Happy hours. Good stepping stone within a career, but not a long term option for most.

Cons

Disorganized management style, often causing fear/dissatisfaction with emploees. Lack of communication. Old boys club mentality and lack of promotions based on merit. Very little growth opportunity within the company. Good luck moving up if you weren't a Bush staffer. High turn over.

Pros

Interesting work Good connections through their field network Flexible work schedule Casual environment Most staffers are personable and friendly Don't have to bill time in incremental periods, which is a huge plus

Cons

Severe lack of communication between senior management and rest of the staff Extremely high turnover Senior management is very cliquey, plays favorites and tends to speak behind junior staffers backs Very little opportunity for growth especially if you are a woman CEO is often absent from the office and not friendly/personable Not very much "outside the box" thinking -- often use the same recycled techniques for different clients
