Pros

I have worked for the firm for nearly five years. New leadership has now taken the appropriate steps to promote personal growth and advancement opportunities. The office environment has largely shed its large corporate feel and has embraced its organic spirit. Working for a large firm has allowed our office to showcase our strengths and learn from an array of different sectors and other talented professionals.

Cons

Better communication when teams are relocated within the office.
