Pros

-worklife balance is encouraged -great benefits and perks -nice community of people -eco-friendly -good pay -lots of opportunity to experience different roles and businesses

Cons

-this is a boys club, male-dominated culture and most of the men are uncomfortable around women (especially women in leadership roles) -in every business, there are few women and minorities at Senior Director and above level -tenure, not performance, typically dictates advancement and therefore managers are usually not the most skilled, talented, capable people on a given team -many teams suffer greatly, due to poor management and little to no leadership -the professional culture, at its heart, is clickish and myopic -
