Pros

strong working colleagues, the potential of OWW and work life balance are the only reasons i've stuck around. OWW has so much potential to be a great place if mgmt would let go of old, business school philosophies and practices. pay is pretty good, but nothing exceptional. benefits are competitive for a company it's size.work environment is good except when you need some privacy or quiet. this is a place for people inherently accountable for their work.

Cons

can't quite figure out who gets promoted and why -- seems like the talent usually is not promoted, rather the talkers. most managers are not capable, rather have strong underlings creating a sense of managerial accomplishment. learning and growth...you're on your own. administratively, place is a wreck. duplicate people, systems, etc...costs could be cut in half.
