Pros

It's a lean firm, which means you can take on more and more projects/work/challenges, which can be rewarding intellectually and financially There are many smart people, which makes the culture interesting, and it is entrepreneurial.

Cons

The work-life balance is tilted to work. And there is an underlying tension resulting from power/prestige being heavy on senior execs. The downside of entrepreneurial is everyone pushing their own project/agenda without direction from the top on setting priorities and telling some folks no.
