It's a great firm to learn at.

Pros

Great Projects, people, structure, and the ability to work on many unique projects. There is some ability to bounce around between the different groups, but you have to really try.

Cons

They make you get caught in a trap where if your good at one job, you keep doing the same type of job over and over again. Compensation is really bad. There really is no intensive.

Pros

If you ask for challenges they will look for ways to give it to you. Although you may not get all of the mentoring you want. Thus it is a great place learn. Great network of people. They have a good internal on demand training website. They do a good job of moving people around the departments in a effort to develop well rounded employees as they move up the corporate ladder in preparation for senior management. It is a large company where you can transfer to other offices, although it is not easy. Overall people are very professional and pleasant to work with.

Cons

Corporate HR pushes work/life balance via emails and news letters, but it is not enforced. Since typically it is face time that determines good performance reviews and salary/promotion increases, the culture discourages working a 40 hour week. The inside joke is that your work and life can still balance at %90 and %10 respectively. Salaries are not competitive. They tend to be cheap about fringe items like Turner labeled promotional items.
