Pros

Staff is amazing, bonuses and some fun events.

Cons

IT Management is horrible. IT CIO & directors/mgrs. along with program analyst, gang up and try to intimated and bully you. IT CIO is the reason they are allowed to get away with it. HR Mgmt. is afraid to address IT CIO and is fully aware about his abusive behavior. Run as fast as you can.

Pros

Mostly great people to work with. Good knowledge base to draw upon.

Cons

The saying is "Uncle Jack will take care of himself." That attitude that partners will look out for themselves at the expense of everyone else runs through the entire firm.
