Pros
Hiring managers really care about bringing in folks who will be a cultural fit and "A" players. This is the smartest group of people I've ever worked with. The product is very interesting and our position in the market is excellent, even without the caveat of our relatively small size. The Acxiom acquisition seems to have had little impact on cultural independence of the LiveRamp business. We are nimble. Escalations are dealt with in a timely manner. Executives seem to really care about individual and team success. We are not caught up in excessive bureaucracy or business processes. Our events are revered in the industry. We have lot of fun.
Cons
Our fast growth and selective hiring mean work/life balance is a struggle for current employees as workload increases. We could do much better with marketing and positioning our products. It seems like some teams have more fun than others. We are growing to a point where more processes and standardization (around contracts and legal, in particular) are needed to facilitate scale. Eye/Med/Dental benefits are lackluster.
