Pros

A good team that is engaged at times, there area few smart people in every department who are approachable.

Cons

Bad leadership - The management in the company has been poorly selected by the CEO and is completely unaware of the basics of managing a team. There is a common culture in the company of passing the ball of responsibility, nobody wants to take ownership of projects. The company goes on a Redundancy spree in Oct 2022 with the excuse of a bad economy and lack of business, but then announces internal promotions in Dec 2022. Can you trust an organisation like this ? The only people who survive in the Company are Yes MEN. Anyone with an opinion or something useful to say is usually silenced. The most dysfunctional departments are Onboarding and Production, this is only due to inexperienced leadership. Don't even think of approaching HR, they only work 2 times a week and all issues are pushed under the rug since they are afraid to speak up to the CEO. Notice the trend of reviews here that are blank on the Cons - These are reviews that employees are made to write on the platform.

Pros

Nice peer group to work with

Cons

Terrible management, the company was always strapped for cash but upper management was completely manic so they would make wild hires and then start firing people because they had no money. Any revenue is tied to one huge client so when they inevitably pull the plug on this experiment the company will fail.
