Pros

Challenging work, excellent pay & benefits, and great internal growth opportunities. Your work will be both noticed and appreciated as promotions are done internally which means your superiors have traveled a similar path and understand your responsibilities. There are numerous areas to grow within the firm as the multiple business lines are constantly growing which creates opportunities for individuals to work on different types of projects. Management and above is receptive to your comments, and the flexibility available is tough to match. The company is clearly a step up from the big 4, and the company is very transparent in sharing updates within the firm. I have been working here for over a year, and have yet to look back once.

Cons

Like any project based work, there tends to be some overlap on projects which requires some juggling on behalf of seniors/managers in order to fully wrap a project up.

Pros

Management frequently improves benefits. Management really knows the business well. The company has historically been well insulated from economic downturns. So many opportunities to stand out and make a name for yourself

Cons

Data driven decisions still a work in progress. Long term vision is likely 1 ish year.

Pros

The people. Peers are great to work with and very supportive. Some of the leaders in the teams are as well. Perks were GREAT but have slowly been taken away or the costs went up.

Cons

Where do I begin? Wholesale executive turnover. Technology projects that we're supposed to say are awesome but aren't really that great. They take up more time to figure out than they're worth and we know those are meant to take our jobs. AI, offshore, temp labor. No thanks. It was a place I loved working at but has slowly just become a job that makes me feel like I should be watching for somewhere else to go. Just in case. The culture has changed quite a bit too. It used to feel like a place where we all wanted to work together but that's slowly fading.
