      Pros

      Smart, personable people working with you in the day to day. Will have fun socializing and bonding with colleagues in your level, mostly over mutual dislike of the job

      Cons

      Middle management in San Francisco office is quintessential ex sorority girl/ ex frat bro culture. Passive aggressive, self important, and above all else, non-genuine. The list of cons goes on and on- horrible work life balance, constantly expected to be on call, hiring smart and ambitious people to be a private equity analyst's whipping girl for two years. Prepare yourself for monotonous work, working for clients who cannot be bothered to remember your name 50% of the time, reporting to a boss who doesn't care about anything other than how your performance affects their bonus. But they'll pretend they do. And somehow, that's worse.
