Pros

Some nice people and interesting projects from when the other companies existed.

Cons

- Heavily bureaucratic - Glass Ceiling - Cost cutting at every corner so you have to do everything - Perpetual state of emergency on projects since they only get the clients that no one wants - 100 billibility mandate is meant to keep you in your place. - Global company operated as a local one. People and office consistently bicker and fight. No cohesion whatsoever. DO NOT THINK THAT YOU WILL HAVE GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES. ITS A COMPLETE LIE.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
