Pros

Highly skilled associates Average to decent salary Resources from the hybrid of organizations interesting projects

Cons

Senior management care only about themselves. Local office heads and senior veterans not motivated to really help underlings. Often make it known they despise their role. in tricky market we know not where we're going. Fragmented data, models and meetings. Clannish, devisive behavior interfering with client mtgs, conference participation and trust. Favoritism, etc. Guidance and accountability seriously lacking in the Coverage, Project Management and Facilities units. Particularly in the New York and SF Bay offices. Good luck getting any emails answered. Or seeing any consistent meetings out of them. Outsourcing so much that we've chopped off our own feet and it's a challenge to go forward. Especially without vision, communication, trust and fairness.

Pros

Good place for an early career professional to pick up skills and get exposure in a brand name global company Very intense, fast pace work that teaches you to think on your feet The opportunity to work with some very hard working, dedicated people

Cons

A toxic environment filled with in-fighting and turf wars amidst senior and middle management No accountability, no stability, no transparency, no performance standards, no trust. Everyone says the right thing but not much gets done except a lot of running around in circles Poor compensation
