Pros

The level of flexibility is excellent and there is a good deal of independence for junior staff. People are kind.

Cons

Disappointing level of emphasis on junior level staff development. Constantly feel as though we are filling in gaps and providing a set of hands rather than a set of skills. Opportunities to take on more responsibility and challenging work are infrequent difficult to pursue as a result of utilization requirements and poor management at the group level. Financial incentives are nonexistent.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
