Pros

- the unbelievable level of support from everyone around in all aspects of work, life, and otherwise. - unprecedented rate of annual growth (20-25%)- both at the corporate and personal levels! - my colleagues are also some of my close friends. - positive and collaborative dynamics between the various groups- it's all about working together, not trying to protect yourself - BEST BOSS EVER - Kevin Jeewan! - If you're struggling, they don't let you throw in the towel and they never give up on you - they work with you to figure out a solid action plan that picks you right back up again. - the care, consideration, and attention provided to one another is truly unlike any other place I've been before.

Cons

- Nothing that comes to mind. :)

Pros

Autonomy, peers with experience and a great work hard/play hard style. You can't help but be enthused after meeting and speaking with others in the company. There are so many people to learn from and what the top producers have created truly is impressive and rare in the industry.

Cons

The enthusiasm seems to only exist when a large group is together and doesn't always translate to the offices individually.
