- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Extremely well-managed successful company with excellent ethics, good benefits and educational opportunities
Cons
I guess the long hours, but those are to be expected.
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
The people here are some of the smartest in the industry. Ongoing training opportunities for both technical and soft skills. Free lunches, free dinners when you work late. Un-paralleled brand recognition. Lots of exposure to different kinds of work.
Cons
Whole organization is top heavy - the "workhorses" at the bottom/middle of the pyramid get little to no recognition for deal work. Compensation gap between staff and managers is MASSIVE. Compensation for sub-manager staff is not competitive for the stress and hours.
