Pros

Good benefits for the size of the company Some managers are willing for employees to balance work/life commitments World class vacation benefits.

Cons

The leadership team is primarily comprised of highly paid expats that chose to stay in the US. The leadership team doesn't care about developing the staff and promotions are not based upon demonstrated delivery of performance but rather based on how politically connected you are to the decision makers. The business does not promote teamwork nor does it value providing developmental feedback to employees who want to make a difference. The organization doesn't value inclusiveness and doesn't treat employees fairly and consistently. The business doesn't stand firm on its commitments when extending sign-on bonuses and relocation assistance.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
