Pros

Autonomy over much of your work, support from peers and managers, excellent benefits.

Cons

The company is so efficiently run that there are few opportunities to work outside of your job description. Some benefits extended to consulting staff do not extend to the administrative team (working from home, etc). Very little opportunity to advance beyond the role of executive assistant.

Pros

The benefits and the free food

Cons

This place is great for anyone with a senior title or gained favoritism. Must learn how to play the system. Flexibility for working moms is preached, but only available to senior employees. Rave about being better that McK, but turns out they are just as bad if not worse. Ironic how this company researches and advices how to best run organizations when internally processes are archaic, innovation is encouraged but very seldomly implemented. Most of the work is being offshored to Costa Rica now. Roles are being closely reviewed meaning quiet layoffs which they swear are not a thing. You are expected to be performing in the senior positions in order to achieve advancement. But in the end it is all about who you know and how much you can suck up.
