Pros

Large firm with long standing clients. Offers great retirement benefits.

Cons

The firm does not live by their core values and code of business ethics. You will be worked to death and not rewarded for your work. They will not pay your required overtime even if you work beyond 40 hours. You will be put down emotionally and mentally to the point of exhaustion and pushed out of the firm. Beware of false promises.

Pros

Great mission, and the lower level team members really want to do what's right. Senior management talks a good game, and they seem to want to do the right things as well.

Cons

Somewhere between senior management and the staff, the message gets "polluted". Lots of politics and minion building. Headcount = power. Some very incompetent middle management. Culture caused me to leave.

Pros

Great benefits plan to include insurance, company contributions towards retirement, tuition reimbursement. Nice facilities to work in, doesn't feel like you are working in a box. There is also a clinic on site, just in case.

Cons

Depending on the manager, there could be some level of nepotism. On the whole, a good work environment to be in.
