Pros
Great reputation, amazing smart colleagues, private, still offers some of the best benefits you won't find anywhere else.
Cons
They systematically lay off or force out anyone over 40 years old. Even partners are expected to leave by their early 50s. They don't value the experience, maturity, and understanding of the firm that comes with tenure. It's about the bottom line - put a 20-something in the seat and pay them substantially less, even if it means sacrificing qualities that only come with experience.
