Pros

Fast paced environment, great learning opportunities, chance to share thoughts and work alongside the best minds in the industry

Cons

Insatiable focus on metrics leading to stress, too much travel, poor work life balance, poor salary structure particularly for analysts, crazy and totally unrealistic expectations from analysts to travel all the time and deliver and yet take nothing away from their sales support in terms of financial benefits, performance appraisals still being done through the dreaded bell curve method..thousands of metrics to drown the analysts in numbers

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
