      Pros

      Decent pay and perks. Good office location.

      Cons

      Horrible work life balance. Expect to work insane hours. Partners are rude and demanding. There is a culture of bullying. If you are not in the “inner circle” you will be overlooked and dismissed constantly - forget about opportunities for advancement. Management is a mess.
