Pros

1) No one really does anything 2) expectations are low 3) low human capital colleagues 4) Pretty low agency 5) lots of bureaucracy for you to hide in If you want a low stress, low pay place to hide and coast you’ve arrived at the right place.

Cons

Obviously not a place to grow a career as a young person. But as a middle aged individual it’s a perfect place to hide - literally no one does anything significant and they think they are amazing! They call themselves “the firm” no doubly styled after McKinsey or Goldman but most of the duds running the show are in low wage areas and thus attract people who value “stability” over getting paid well for their skills and ability to do revolutionary things. Not a high performance culture that’ll prep you for the 2030s but hey that’s hopefully not what you’re after either! Upper management is pretty much on the dud side. Don’t have to be believe what I write - just check out the credentials of most of their Exec staff - it’s a bit of a joke - but they aren’t styling themselves as a world class talent base; it’s more a get the basics done as cheap as possible kinda place. So it’s okay, I suppose.

Pros

The pay is market average, and the benefits are quite good. I love my peers. The vast majority of them are kind and talented people. I truly enjoyed my first several years with the company. Well past the honeymoon period for a new employer. And at the time, I recommended this place to anyone I knew looking for a job.

Cons

Management is a mess from the bottom up. The culture of the company has drastically changed over the last several years because of frequent retirements, layoffs, and reorganizations. Employees I know from across describe the same experience: the company has gone from outstanding culture to one that feels openly hostile to its employees. Management decisions are built like cudgels and enforced through all stick and no carrot.
