Pros

some of the people who are actually doing work are really nice.

Cons

Senior Management are full of ego and love the sound of their own voice. Leadership preaches about being a family, and caring about you yet at the first chance to throw you under a bus they would and do... You’ll be worked to the bone, they can’t resource any account properly. They’ve got a square peg in a round hole approach to it when ever there’s a resourcing issue and people are dropping like flies either through stress or just don’t want to work there anymore. Pitching is a mess, there’s too many egos and too many cooks for it to run smoothly. If you’ve got your nose in the right place.. you might get some credit but otherwise it’s two big daily doses of underpaid (by 50%) and over worked.

Pros

There is a solid leadership team with a vision.

Cons

You need to work 3 days in the office (I guess a con if want 100% remote work).

Pros

fast-paced. large teams with support at many levels. Interesting clients.

Cons

high-level corporate structure—hard to get around opinions of select few. Felt very political at times. Deadline stress often with client projects.
