Pros
The methodology for growth seems to work and make a lot of sense. The individual operating companies have, in some cases, maintained the cultures they had before acquisition and have some fantastic leaders. It's definitely dependent on which operating company you are in.
Cons
Goldman puchased USI to flip it. Right now, employees are at their breaking point because growth has been demanded, but no raises or hiring have accompanied it. The CEO is very condescending and not a leader anyone likes or follows. Leadership at the operating company level can be very much about spending time saving rears over truly leading.
