Pros

To get a respected name on your resume. Tough out the endless political infighting. Ignore the blatant incompetence. Subdue your desire to affect any actual change and reap the rewards later in your career. Face it. People like Starbucks. No matter how ridiculous upper management it.

Cons

For a company so young it's amazing the amount of bureaucracy that has already built up. If you want to actually achieve anything, avoid this Seattle bureaucratic downturning company. Also, the magnitude of the missteps of capitol investments that have been made is significant.

Pros

Good experience, helped me find my professional self, helped give me confidence in my self, great people to work with, I got the job just for the benifits. Since working there I really liked the company and ow it operates for the most part. After being there for a little while, I became frustrated with upper management and how things are done. There is much transition in the com. right now, but it seems poorly run still. Hopefully they will continue to make things better.

Cons

Upper management is incompetent and ridiculous in there expectations. This may work itself out with certain people being fired recently in the restructuring of the company, For such a huge company, the organization is bad to say the least. We are always running out of things, trying to teach artners some new rollout while having to much going on and not enough people to help. There is never enough face time between partners and management. Partners training is definitely not sufficient. There is no desire to relly make sure people are doing well in there new role unless they are slowing down the line.
