Pros

Salary initially "appeared" to be ok

Cons

* Salary is good but you'll be worked very hard. Expect to work 80-100 hours plus per week. * Most people work from home which has many cons: 1) Inability to learn from colleagues 2) Out of sight - out of mind, therefore you're not going to be missed if they decide to layoff employees, 3) It tends to attract many parents so you'll have to work around them taking the kids to school, hospital etc 4) Since it's a global company, expect to have meetings at 1am and/or 5am frequently. You will never be able to get a proper nights sleep and you can forget about seeing friends and family while you're working here. * The company cares far more about its share price than its employees - so they don't mind mass layoffs * Since you're most likely to work from home, you may never meet the people you're working with so they're more likely to not care if they're rude or degrading

Pros

Great salary and benefits. Mid level people can be great despite terrible managers. Learned a lot because of survivor-like atmosphere.

Cons

No work life balance, lack of growth opportunities, no resources -- sink or swim. No one is accountable but want to micromanage and then point fingers if anything goes wrong. No training. Expect more layoffs if Management above GWS does not take an interest and fix the systemic problems in the operating model.
