Pros

i would say that the overall compensation package is reasonable.

Cons

The CEO and managament have been unsuccessful in maintaining their top employees in part because of the difficulty in managing such a large company that consists of diverse legacy companys and that has distinct regional practices. "employees are our most valuable resource" is a false mantra and falls on deaf ears because the employees dont see it practiced at any level within the company, on the contrary the company has ignored its best and brightest and ignored the storied history of its legacy firms. The company vision (if there is one) is a short term fiscallly dirven one and is not sustainable.

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)
