Pros

Very flexible work schedule - you're supposed to come into the office 2 days a week, but you can skip a day or two without any problems as long as you're getting your work done.

Cons

Low salary, Great deal of micromanaging - the company is top heavy, Too many people making decisions at the top so the front line workers have to hear about them from 4 or 5 different people. The UK office practically makes all major managerial decisions. Pay and job level are not decided by your skill set or year of experience. Fellow employees ignore each other and it's diffcult to count on others to do anything that doesn't directly help them. There are a lot of other companies in the same field that will treat you better, pay more and where you can actually start a career.

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.
