Pros

Great workplace and people. Various job opportunities internally. Plenty of benefits and perks. Overall a great company to work for.

Cons

Sometimes there is miscommunication and disorder. Since the company is global you might need to spend long hours to communicate with other teammates.

Pros

- Respect for Work/Life Balance - Premium Brand for the ole Resume - Opportunities to move around and follow your passions

Cons

- Professional pedigree of many colleagues leaves a lot to be desired - Low end of pay scale, particularly for NYC - Zero perks - I know the recession may have something to do with this, but can a brother get an free bagel or water bottle every now and again? Just sayin....
