Pros

Some very talented people work at the firm, but it's highly line of business dependent. Benefits are pretty good, particularly vacation.

Cons

Terrible treatment of lower level staff. You would think the #Metoo movement was a wake up call for HR to stop smothering complaints about leadership, but I can say that isn't the case with this company.

Pros

Remote flexibility, which is nice.

Cons

You will not get a raise and if you do, it'll be 1%. Managers will not help you with escalating issues, you're on your own. It'll be blamed on you. You'll work so much overtime you won't have a social life.
