Pros

Lots to work on and a huge opportunity to grow. Relevant if you are only starting out your career. Mobility is encouraged and surprisingly easy

Cons

Not a meritocracy as advertised - you really only get rewarded when there is a representation up your division leadership chain. Having lots to work on as a pro is only based on the con of deliberate under staffing. Non-existent work from home package if you are not on the revenue side. Firm policy has in fine print that you are responsible for all work from home equipment which is ok for temporary one off situations but post covid, there has been zero firm support even when people now have to use personal devices for work full time. Pipelines are being created for minorities into tech but firm culture is not rapidly changing to improve retention.
