Pros

Generally good hours; flat hierarchy; excellent medical benefits; premium office locations; people mostly friendly and helpful; good platform on which to independently operate (if one's business is established)

Cons

No hierarchy means no accountability at senior level and general lack of meritocracy; below-market compensation and bonus; lack of overall firm strategy as a result of deeply ingrained silo mentality across business units and offices

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.
