Pros

Partners are less stuck up than in other firms, great opportunities to work on international projects. Great vacation policy.

Cons

The culture is a bit toxic. Managerial decisions are horrible and not grounded in facts. Partners can get away with abusive behavior. There is no real commitment to diversity.
