Pros

Great location in downtown Chicago, decent benefits package. Not too much else to mention here.

Cons

No real structure or mission here in this top heavy and highly political organization. Leadership is mediocre, as are the values at SmithBucklin. Slow moving and outdated in systems and process. Lacks the ability to recognize needed changes and even slower to implement thereby creating obstacles rather than opportunities to do the best work possible. High turnover as a result

Pros

It is fast-paced, and you'll learn a lot.

Cons

Non-existent work-life balance, unreasonable about # of clients and work load, low-level employees get blamed for everything, lots of stress-crying in the bathroom, some of the managers are rude without consequence, technology is terrible. There's literally no reason to stay.
