Pros

The people and culture here is truly amazing. Everyone cares about each other and really does feel warm and exciting to come to work with your best friends.

Cons

Management changes their minds on how to deal with situations every other day. Gossip spreads quickly due to nature of a young employee base and everyone being friends. Losing business and hard to grow with holding cos as competitions. Some teams are overworked while others are begging for things to do. Delegation is not great. Pendulum between leadership overly transparent and getting a lot of opinions from the employees to being secretive and leaving the entire company in the dark gives me whiplash. You literally never know what is going to happen next or when a change might be enacted.

Thanks for your review. we really appreciate you taking the time to share honest feedback. Building a company is messy and imperfect, and I’m committed to doing better: improving consistency, reducing gossip, winning new business, competing with the holding companies, balancing workloads, and trusting our teams to deliver great work. We know we don’t always get it right, but we care deeply about making this a place where people can grow and do their best work. As for knowing what’s coming next, we all want a crystal ball. But we’ve learned that the quality of life and business often comes down to how much uncertainty we can handle. We’ll keep showing up, learning, and working hard to make GA stronger every day. Thank you for all that you do - it means a lot.

Pros

Traveling on the company dime and cult like atmosphere clouds the fact you work for someone who is morally bankrupt

Cons

Blowhard unhinged CEO flaunts his wealth and surrounds himself with white women. Typical behavior of the billionaires he worships.
