Pros

Many talented people with a great social side.

Cons

Very difficult to gain promotion, unless you're in with the 'old boys'. Not clear who knows the whole plan for the future of the business. Too many VPs with their own agendas, who regularly come and go, with not much change in the day to day work.

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.
