Pros

The culture was easily the number one asset that drove the success of the broader Woodmac team. Analysts, Consultants, Marketing, and sales all collaborated well, shared success and challenges and time and time again worked towards the common goal of company success. Certainly wasn't a perfect company but easily the best experience of my career.

Cons

The matrix structure was often confusing, but this was easily overcome by the collaborative culture.
