Pros

Beautiful new office in San Francisco Smart coworkers

Cons

Beautiful new office...but return to work policy 5 days a week, enforced with low flexibility and poor change management when announced -- ironically, change management is a client service offered. Projects range widely depending on assignment. Some were very interesting, some was glorified data entry. Business runs on client need. Layoffs common.
