Pros
I write this review as someone that watched a thriving culture that did amazing things to what it is today. If I wrote this 4years ago, it would be the opposite. Cvent had everything it needed (great people) to succeed and they're starting to lose that. The people. This company has some of THE BEST, most kind, and thoughtful people. Sadly, see cons because this is starting to fade due to the shift in culture in the past few years. You will be busy. There is no shortage of work and this means you get a broad range of exposure to the org and products.
Cons
As a designer: You have to fight hard every single step of the way to get the simple things done and when you actually get to delivery, watch as your hard work goes from a design you once knew to a figment of your imagination. You will be judged on doing design properly but in this organization, it is near impossible, so prepare to fail in the eyes of your manager. The "technical constraints" are never possible to get around and trump design. So prepare to always be making sub-par designs to fit the "technical constraints" Unless managers that have zero exposure to your work believe you're good at your job, you will have a tough time succeeding. There is a pretty tight inner circle at the top of the design org, if you're in, great if not, godspeed (especially if you're a manager). Solutions are already figured out long before you as a designer get involved. General: A toxic culture where you are constantly wondering who will push you under the bus. You have to document conversations to protect yourself. Politics, politics, politics. If you are capable and equipped to play a political game, this is the place for you.
