Pros
You’re thrown into account responsibilities from the start and given exposure to clients which can be good when you’re early in your career (which most everyone is, 95% of employees are recent grads). The young workplace can be nice at times and fosters some support but ultimately showcases the leaders’ inability to hire more experienced (and expensive) talent.
Cons
Don’t be fooled by the “fun culture” and free meals. The culture consists of a work horse mentality which while not always verbally stated by the leaders, will expect you to work late and on weekends to meet impossible expectations. You would think the reward for such hard work would be better compensation or a promotion, but sadly if you are not marked as one of the favorites by management your advancement opportunities will remain stagnant or minimal at best. The culture also consists of unprofessional interactions from the founders and some managers, creating an environment that can feel quite toxic and lacking boundaries. The biggest downside is turnover. Teams are constantly changing every month to account for it, making things feel unstable pretty much all the time and affecting everyones work.
