Pros

Decent pay and some good people

Cons

I came to this company with high hopes and very excited. It seemed great initially and i loved working there! That changed and I was made to feel I was not good enough and dreaded going to work. I gave them everything I had and it was still not good enough. There is a distinct disregard for the internal staff if they don't fit the mold. If you do not fit the cookie cutter or drink enough of the kool-aid, you are frowned upon. There is minimal support given if you are not a favorite of a managing partner. There is never exactly time off, you are always expected to be reachable at ALL hours, which isn't bad when you are getting fairly compensated, but when you are not getting your commissions, it starts to wear on you! The focus seems to be more on partying than anything else and this spans breadth of the company.
