Pros

Great work life balance. Good exposure to business and management if you are working on the right project.

Cons

Career growth is very slow and you have to push your way through to get noticed or to get things done.There's a lot of bureaucracy in processes which otherwise could be simpler.

Pros

Good career mobility. A little less than intense than most wall street firms.

Cons

Compensation was below-average. They reported and paid bonuses late (mid-march) so it was hard to find a new job in the early year scramble, and they always preserved an option for themselves once the market had been made for bonuses by paying so late. Were never really taken seriously by clients. Technology was an issue too. Didn't spend on IT, most of the infrastructure was in Europe.
