Pros

- Nice cafeteria - A few very smart, competent people remain who are more than willing to educate and develop others. They tend to be second- and third-tier people within the organization, rather than senior management

Cons

- Culture has changed over the past three years from being client-focused to being a "me" culture where employees only do what they THINK they will get paid for, with little guarantee of that actually happening - Compensation is deeply below market with most of it seeming to stay at the "C" level - Few experienced resources left which cripples any effort to produce a good product and respectable client service - Corporate strategy is completely opaque which feeds continued anxiety about the future of the firm, its clients and its employees - Product development is always playing catch-up a little too late

AB is a solid mid-sized company with a really good work-life balance. The culture is friendly and supportive.
