Pros

They offer good starting salary, but no growth from there on.

Cons

Growth does not depend on performance, but only way to step up the ladder is politics, which is systemized by EDs. Hence not a firm where you can think of staying committed for long term. They are stuck in catch-22, politics is there because no innovation is happening (age old regression modelling), innovation is not happening because it is not rewarded (as much as sucking up to EDs)
