      Pros

      International mobility. Ability to learn (when you aren't being overworked). Office culture used to be wonderful, they hire great people who work hard.

      Cons

      Constant changes in strategy. Promoting high performers (workaholics) with no management skills, unable to motivate subordinates. Senior management delegate tasks with no visibility about their day to day role. They treat less senior workers like children while having outrageous expectations and handing out immense responsibility. The work is tedious. Pay expectations have aecreased

      Pros

      Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

      Cons

      Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

      Pros

      Good colleagues, arguably a good job post college (for like a year MAX)

      Cons

      I cannot stress enough how terrible this company is. Spent 5 years there, and watched it go further downhill every year. You leave with only soft skills (if that), and 0 actual industry knowledge. Seriously, you leave only knowing a bunch of Hocus Pocus. I am really surprised this company hasn't been bought yet. Or merged. On my team alone, we lost 7 out of our 9 managers since January... either due to layoffs or them quitting. Pay is low. There are no bonuses and it's very difficult to get a raise. 90k in NYC is poverty. There are bright people that come in with Masters, and PhDs, and MBAs -- handing them 90k is insulting.
