Pros

The talent is incredible, the work life balance is great, and we are always getting to work on something new. The team I work on and the various partners in our group are very intelligent and accomplish amazing things. There are very few times each year that require huge amounts of over time. The projects that come through are always interesting, especially the technology related ones.

Cons

Corporate policy and procedures can be tricky to navigate.
