Pros

Lots of opportunities to explore different roles/businesses, culture of internal promotion, great IP, very strong brand, the people are high caliber, global business gives a lot of credibility and a strong network of colleagues.

Cons

Pay. Career paths aren't readily available or intuitive for support roles- you have to make your own opportunities. Culture/identity shifts are constant due to growth by acquisition. Menu of services changes too much to allow a consistent message to clients and internal staff. Supporting roles are generally secondary to those that are client-facing; development opportunities align with that focus.

Pros

Work from home gives flexibility, time off is good.

Cons

No raises ever, bonuses are not a motivator nor an indicator of the work you do. No one seems to know why you receive the bonus you do, it is just from a spreadsheet handed to your direct manager who apparently has no influence in the decision. Raises never happen and no one can answer if they are coming or not—you just never get one.
