Pros

Lots of young, driven coworkers. Easy to make friends throughout the company. Beautiful office and good technology resources. Open work environment helps break the monotony.

Cons

Poor compensation, compared to other firms. Expectation to work nights, weekends but will refuse to pay overtime for some positions (Valuation Associate). Lack of freedom, discouraged from taking vacation time.

The company has a great mentor program. You will meet colleagues who do amazing things like write books, receive leadership awards, and write checks to nonprofits that really need the help.

Pros

They provide a wealth of learning materials to further your career.

Cons

My experience was that upper management does not understand what those in lower level positions do, and they don't take advantage of experience and knowledge of those below them to make strategic decisions.
