Pros

Office is in wonderful location

Cons

They don't pay well, and they don't treat people well. What is shocking is they keep under performers and even trouble makers in their jobs because if they get rid of them, they won't be able to backfill the position. So there seems to be no consequence for anything. This is certainly NOT a metritocracy.

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.
