Pros

Top notch and dedicated coworkers. The firm is well positioned to handle the current crisis, despite the recent fall in stock price. Overall compensation is strong. Management supports movement within the firm. Work and life balance seems fairly strong across the firm, although long hours can be expected in most positions. Opportunities for advancement are plentiful, and hard work seems to be well rewarded. Top management is well respected, and has a great deal of experience.

Cons

Hours can be somewhat longer than at peer firms. Base salaries may not be as high as at some other firms. There really is not very much to complain about here.

Pros

decent pay and good name drop to add to your experience and resume

Cons

everything!! since this was a contract role I was brought in to complete a project with 0 leadership or direction. I was left to figure out everything completely on my own from finding a computer and a desk and a phone to figuring out who to contact in India etc to help me revamp the entire global website on the backend. I literally had to show up to work everyday at least an hour early so that I could possibly try to find a open desk sometimes I had to work on the floor or find somewhere in the lunchroom I could set up in the corner this went on for over a month.
