Culture/fit/learning style very important. Also, the type of work they get.

The kind of work the firm gets is the kind of thing that the new hire will be cutting his teeth on. If you're offered a big firm position but it comes with huge amounts of bulk work with little prospect to level up your skills over time, you may want to consider a smaller firm that lets you learn what you need in order to transit to where you really want to go.
