Pros

Great building in a great location.

Cons

Easily the most dysfunctional company I have worked for. Despite it being a relatively small firm with close working quarters, the leadership has very little respect for associates. The company does not invest in professional development, nor does it adequately reward high performers.

Pros

Smart people to work with, great tools and systems

Cons

Acquiring companies and not being efficient or effective of bringing them all together; Leadership is not enough in the weeds/day to day to understand what is happening and how people are doing; New business approach feels old school and outdated (which probably leads to why loss of pitches)
