Pros

The brand name is powerful and attracts clients.

Cons

Staff is over worked, understaffed. We are asked month after month to do more with less, but still achieve excellance in all areas. The company sold itself to a wall st. hedge fund and now it's all about giving them a bigger bottom line.
