Pros
I have to start with the people: there are hard workers at all levels and the culture is vastly improving. Various conversations happen all throughout the office, about various topics: sports, fashion, "how was your birthday", and of course work. Its a very friendly company, where generally all employees get along with each other. You NEED to be a great communicator at this company, as you work with many stakeholders on multiple simultaneous projects. However, in doing this, you really get to know your colleagues well. Basically an entire new Executive Leadership team has come in within the last year; their vision, with the backing of TH Lee is finally starting to come together. This is a dynamic firm in a dynamic industry, so things are constantly changing which keeps your head on a swivel.
Cons
Because the firm is so busy, there are some rudimentary tasks that aren't solidified, for example a fixed performance review process - not the end of the world but also what you wouldn't expect from an 11 year old firm. Lack of transparency of company goals - albeit improving, lower level staff did not feel a "purpose" for their work. They did not understand how their jobs affected the bottom line. However, the new CEO started having lunch and learns with various staff to answer these types of questions, hence the improvement comment. Lastly, turnover is high - a factor, in my opinion, may be that compensation is below average, compared to the nature of the work asked by all employees.
