Pros

Young and aspiring professionals/peers, casual dress code, supportive director, great people to work with, extremely diverse, emphasis on social responsibility and sustainability. Many office events i.e. July BBQ, Cinco de Mayo, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.

Cons

Work can get dull and repetitive. Middle management needs more training on people skills and leadership skills. Mandatory overtime in the beginning of the month (month end)

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
