Pros

New Hoboken office has nice view.

Cons

Kiss-up envinorment. Lots of really stupid ideas put forth by clueless incompetent management staff that you MUST agree are brilliant or you're pegged as not being a team player. Reorgs & policy changes 3-4 times per year cause mass confusion.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
