Pros

Compensation is on par with industry. Good business model since most of the revenue is fee based with minimum risk.

Cons

Bangalore is the only office which is growing. Employees are slowly being let go from NYC office. This is being done one or two at a time to keep it under the radar. All the values and principles of the firm are only on paper. In practice there is rampant corruption (especially in technology vendors), favoritism and red tape. Dissenting viewpoints though encouraged in training and meetings are your way out of the firm in practice. Promotions are not based on merit but on who you know,
