Pros

- Quite laid back atmosphere compared to some of its competitors. You're there to get the job done, less artificiality in the corporate culture. - Rapid career progression, I had the opportunity to move from senior associate to manager within a year. - Opportunities for paid further education.

Cons

- Hours can get a bit much. - On the other hand there were significant periods of downtime when there was little happening on the client front. - Lateral movement can be difficult, so if you get stuck with a Partner whose personality you clash with, watch out!

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
