Pros

Time off and some great co-workers

Cons

Anything you say can and will be held against you; and brought up, often ambiguously at staff meetings. Non stop production is expected as in a factory. There's never any praise given for the work (except for the favored few). The same does not hold true for errors, which are dealt with swiftly and severely. There's no accountability from management when something goes wrong, and employees cannot count on HR for anything. Ridicule, bullying, pettiness, retaliation and favoritism are all tactics used by management. The latter refers to having a "good attitude" when you grin and put up with all levels of unfairness or whatever else you're dealt without a word. Morale is very low and communication is not valued. The New York and Houston offices have particularly poor reputations for treatment of employees.

Pros

Working on the corporate end of things upper management is a slow moving machine with a lot of office politics. Depending on how well you work with partners and show your worth to the firm, you CAN move up... There is a pro women work environment with lots of benefits for expecting mothers.

Cons

Please note this is only in regards to the corporate side. Corporate management needs to improve. High turnover rate because of how managers work and train their employees. Lots of work and OT for little compensation and appreciation.
