Pros

Health benefits are good enough and the gym reimbursement is nice The people make it worth while for now

Cons

CEO micro-manages every department which might be tolerable if he didn't change his mind every other day. He is known to make things a priority one day and makes you drown in hours of work to get it done and then its never implemented or even brought up again There is no structure in any way - not at the management level, not within departments and definitely no guidance within your own role People are fired / let go with no warning or reason, just whenever the CEO wants, some are there under 1 month No performance reviews, no annual bonus paid out, no structure on raises, no work life balance, no diversity and inclusion, hardly any flexibility with work hours This is just not a good place to work, people are overworked, severely underpaid and then treated like they should be lucky to even be allowed in the doors with promises of promotions, raises and good work life balance. Overall just don't work here. The CEO is awful and there's no way he's going to change how he operates so don't see how it could really improve no matter how many good people try to help him If you currently work here, get out while you can

Pros

The Chicago team is very small, and they did a decent job of hiring. It is a small but good group in which team members work hard and are team-oriented. Upper management is smart enough to hire only those who are qualified and needed.

Cons

Outside of hiring, upper management is quite clueless. They don't know how to manage projects, lead a team, don't have a technical background, don't have a financial background, don't understand the customers, don't know the industry very well......the founders are clearly wealthy, but don't have much in terms of relevant or meaningful work experience. The combination is predictably disastrous, as they look down upon their employees with condescension indicative of their own insecurity, and are completely lacking in their ability to lead through inspiration and motivation. Needless to say, they also lack anything remotely resembling an inspirational vision. They have a rather commodity product that they don't do a particularly good job of servicing.

Pros

honestly it is hard to say something positive about this firm. One positive is how international the firm is. You will work with people from many different backgrounds and countries.

Cons

They promise things they never have intentions of actually delivering on. They have no clear direction for the firm. They spy on you constantly. Watch out for other employees, the majority do not have your best interest in mind.
