Pros

There are some great clients and a lot of great clients and some exciting work being done. There is a lot of talent and benefits are decent.

Cons

There is absolutely no loyalty to employees. I have heard it referred to as a "sweat shop" and there is a lot of truth to that. That would rather rehire you than promote you. The HR department is the most unprofessional of any I have experienced.
