Pros
-The team is incredibly driven, which fosters a strong, results-oriented culture. -The main customer demographic is women, which makes for interesting and impactful conversations about romance tropes and storytelling. -Great hybrid work environment.

Cons
-Compensation starts below market for most roles. Raises seem to happen differently for every team. -In-office expectations have been ramping up, even as random employee perks are being cut, which sends mixed messages about priorities. -The company is weighted with middle management, which can sometimes slow decision-making or dilute accountability. -Marketing leadership lacks clarity, and because marketing impacts nearly every team, those unclear priorities ripple throughout the business, causing delays and confusion.
