A great firm with a strong culture.
Pros: Great firm benefits, especially for people with families who need generous time off and flexible work arrangements. Very generous vacation program. Good compensation. Casual, caring, relaxed work environment in the Montvale NJ campus. The firm is very open to internal career mobility and has excellent learning and development opportunities. Leadership really cares about morale and promoting a strong culture.
Cons: Speaking about business process groups specifically, there is a lot of functional and technology system segmentation which often makes it difficult to accomplish routine work! Day to day experience 100% depends on the direct team and manager (PML), since different groups have their own subculture and ways of operating while the firm as a whole is pretty amazing.  This location has mix of people who are professional and very committed, and those who just show up to show up, and ride on the coattails of their stronger colleagues.
