      Pros

      Location of office is amazing

      Cons

      - Work life balance is non existent. - The long hours are not reflected in the salaries they offer. - Office environment often feels like a school, with overworked underpaid employees taking out their frustrations on each other, with the management policing behavior as it suits them. - Incredibly high turnover of staff, no one stays there past 2 years out of college.

      Pros

      Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

      Cons

      Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
