Pros

-The office is located in a great area in OC -Mgmt takes the time to get to know staff members

Cons

-LOW LOW LOW salaries -Mgmt sets unrealistic goals and then hires inexperienced employees to try to meet those goals. They always miss. The hired employees are chosen over more qualified applicants because they'll accept the lower salaries. -The company offers attractive wellness items (alcohol in the office, ping pong table, happy hours), but employees who utilize those amenities are scolded for it. They put hourly restrictions on when those things can be used, which meant you'd have to stay after normal hours (OT) to use them. -Every weekly staff meeting felt like a sales pitch. You're stressed being asked to do things you're not qualified for and they're sales pitching why you should stay with the company. Retention issues. -They're constantly restructuring the company and it never makes sense why it's happening or what the end goal is besides promoting people without providing pay bumps. -Unlimited PTO means you don't accrue time off (they don't owe you anything). You have to put in a request and bargain for it. -Mgmt doesn't take part in lunches, happy hours, etc., but employees are expected to. Everyone talks to each other all day, it's an open floorplan office. Those should be times for mgmt to be involved in the personal conversations.

Supportive, high-performing culture: The team is smart, collaborative, and genuinely kind. You’re trusted with real ownership, and strong work is recognized. Clearer vision and fresh leadership momentum: Recent leadership changes have brought more focus, accountability, and an exciting outlook for growth, especially in performance and social commerce.

Growing pains with structure: As the company evolves, some processes are still being refined and alignment can take time. Fast-paced environment: Expectations are high and priorities can shift quickly, so flexibility and resilience are important.

Pros

-Feels like you are truly a part of a team -You will be rewarded/recognized for good work -Leadership will give you a seat at the table to help guide decision making -Company culture is A+ -Leadership is happy to roll their sleeves up and work with all individual contributors as just another member of the team. No corporate bureaucracy BS or egos at play. -Privately held, no ulterior motives

Cons

Workload at times can seem high but with that said, the company is in growth mode which should resolve the issue on its own. Overall, the company is sincere in its core values and headed into a positive growth pattern - both accounts and employee headcount.
