Was a great place to work at, now not so much any more
Pros: Very flat organizational structure: easy access to management and top brass
Cons: Favoritism rampant. "Networking" pays more in the firm that delivering quality work. There is a ridiculous emphasis on "firm hours" - the hours contributed to the firm activities, which could be as silly as making presentations - over high quality work.
This is especially, painfully obvious during the year end reviews and thus reflects in the subsequent promotions / salary raises. Thus has resulted in a largely dissatisfied workforce.
Management is remarkably poor at estimating LOEs, this coupled with an obsessive desire to please the client at all costs and come out looking good, results in very inefficient, ineffective work lower down the chain.
