Pros

Lots of young people. Opportunity for travel and transfer to different locations. There are very smart, cool people who work for this company.

Cons

Poor quality work. The company cares more about its shareholders than employees or clients. Poor leadership. Mid-level employees get squeezed out, little room to grow unless you are well connected. Boring work; the company does not try very hard to get you work that you excel in or are passionate about unless it meets their budget. Not a forward-thinking company. The professional development plan is smoke and mirrors, it's not taken seriously by management.

Pros

The people and the work we do.

Cons

None really. Could use better pay consistencies and recognition of those who do well and are rewarded as such.
