Pros

People are hard-working and really want to be successful. They'll go the extra mile for you and are willing to answer questions. The compensation pool is generally very fair and the firm often provides large bonuses at year-end.

Cons

Work-life balance can be tough to manage at the firm. People are often working longer hours due to staffing issues, amount of work, high priority projects, etc. For some reason, we've centralized support functions despite being a global firm. This often leads to support staff receiving questions in the middle of the night from overseas colleagues. This often leads to burnout/turnover of staff. The hiring and recruiting process is often too long and the assessment process can be a barrier that causes positions to be open longer than necessary. The firm struggles with defining a career plan for newer staff members. It often preaches your career should be viewed as entrepreneurship but fails to provide solid direction on how to build a career path for individuals.

Pros

Truly strategic challenges on a daily basis. Working with CEO most of the time. Mantra of "when it really matters" plays true with every client. Opportunity to work with top 5% of graduates and MBAs who are keen to support and help you grow. Good comp and bens

Cons

Long hours and distorted work/life balance, however that is part of the trade-off for the critical nature of the work we do
