Pros

I love pretty much everything about this company. Their guiding principles are something they live, not just say because they sound good. the support their employees and make sure they are heard. Most of the people I work with on a daily basis are amazing human beings that really know how to collaborate and support other team members to achieve a common goal of excellence. They support a fully remote , in office or hybrid work structure of your preference. Amazing office culture too! So many fun activities to promote a strong office bond with fellow employees. Highly recommend!

Cons

The only downside I have experienced is, because this is a large, global firm, some of the technology and communication methods and systems can be overwhelming or difficult to navigate, making it cumbersome to locate the information needed.
