Pros

Talented and smart colleagues. It is a tough place to be and you get challenged very often. You can do amazing things since it is pretty much still an evolving firm. The culture is very open.

Cons

You need to show off :). Good networking is extremely essential at this firm. To move ahead, you need to make sure that the right people know about you.
