Pros

Great perks, hardworking and fun employees. Company mission can do a lot of good for the average working American.

Cons

As many have pointed out, the C level team is way in way over their heads. Most of them are lucky to have their jobs. They would not be where they are if the CEO was not their friend. They are a cancerous tumor that is slowly destroying the company from within. A few people have already highlighted the incompetent, ineffective, clueless CMO who continues to create havoc and turmoil within his organization. No one understands why he hires VPs to run 2-3 people departments or people without a defined role. Most people in Marketing don't trust or respect him.

Pros

Skill Building: There are good opportunities to get hands-on with data, automation, and AI workflows. There is a lot of autonomy to try new things and ownership given to ICs. Things are never boring and I genuinely enjoyed the work itself. Colleagues: You will find some supportive peers and team members who make the day-to-day work easier. Resume Value: The brand recognition and experience gained here are genuinely helpful for future job searches.

Cons

Abrupt Termination: After 11 months in role, my contract was terminated early with no warning (and effective immediately) via a 5 min call with my agency's recruiter. There was no response from management when requesting final sync. Instability/Job Security: The looming integration with Intuit creates a constant backdrop of anxiety. I can tell the company is doing its best to stay competitive and ahead of the curve. However, the immense value placed on automation and AI can make employees feel replaceable and like they're working themselves out of a job. Lack of Process/Planning: Fast-paced and reactive culture. Attempts to introduce better workflows or quarterly planning to manage workload were often met with resistance or dismissed. Without procedures in place, managers also feel the need to micro-manage. Advice for Contractors: Negotiate a 4-week notice period into your agreement so they cannot terminate you immediately without pay. Ensure your agency is offering PTO/Sick time as well. All benefits are negotiable. Do not work overtime expecting loyalty or conversion. Set boundaries.
