Pros

Provides consistent opportunities to learn If you show initiative they will provide significant senior advice and guidance The team pushes you to do the best you can Very client centric culture Management team is really good about listening to the concerns of the employees and maintaining transparency across the business Everyone cares about their jobs Low turnover Hyper-growth company (if you stay long enough its hard to not move up the ranks as the company grows) Likes promoting from within

Cons

Hard work life balance mainly due to the industry (lawyers are demanding and work weird hours) but partially just the culture pushes you to be the best you can be and in return people work long hours Not complete transparency on when employees depart (but most of the time its fairly obvious why) Oversight, management, and guidance - I know I put this as a Pro as well but if you don't really push yourself to be better and take on new tasks you wont get significant attention. The company is very entrepreneurial and you can make up a position if you want but this is no place where they will give you a step by step guide to success. You'll have to forge your own path.

Pros

Senior Management has a solid vision for what the company is today and where they want it to grow Tremendous amount of training and communication at every level Senior Management is responsive and open as the company is going through an advanced growth stage There seems to be a process in place for just about everything (Checklist Manifesto is essential reading) Sales Management is extremely supportive & strategic in building the sales team structure and growing the business Large number of intelligent industry experienced experts in each department "Reach Out Discovia" is a great employee-driven community activity group that coordinates the company's involvement in a number of non-profit and charity organizations and events HR/ACCTG are very responsive to clarify any issues, questions and concerns and escalate promptly, if necessary Monthly "Town Hall" meetings are a great opportunity for different departments/individuals to present various hot/current topics to all employees. It's also an open communication for Senior Management to communicate the "State of the Company" and for employees to ask any questions; part of the meeting is dedicated to recognition shout outs from anyone It's exciting! There is always something new happening, which is typical of a company that is growing

Cons

Only con...decisions relating to changing existing processes take multiple levels of management to enact change, but that is part of being a growing company
