Pros

Free Food and Snacks Nice coworkers who definitely tried

Cons

In a word: "culture" * Over an almost 2 year period, there were 3 different CEOs * The VC really took to weeding out people which caused a whiplash in priorities * Talent on the teams varied, some teams were lucky, others, not so much * Not that we had fragile egos, but let's just say that the accolades to the "we're no good" comments was disproportionate to the results * WAY too many applications to pretend that a one-size-fits-all prescription was ever going to be filled, given tight deadlines, lack of resources, and large existing client-bases

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

The company has significant issues that make it difficult to recommend as a long-term workplace. HR support is virtually non-existent, leaving employees without meaningful assistance when concerns arise. Favoritism appears to influence decisions more than performance or merit, creating an unfair work environment. There are very few opportunities for career growth, and many employees find themselves in stagnant roles with little chance for advancement. Even when employees consistently exceed expectations and earn recognition, raises are infrequent or nonexistent, making it difficult to feel valued for hard work. Additionally, there is a noticeable lack of professionalism at the management level. Communication, accountability, and leadership standards need significant improvement. Overall, the company would benefit from investing in stronger leadership, a more effective HR department, and a culture that rewards performance fairly.
