Pros

Competitive pay if you're staffed. Can find good pockets of culture.

Cons

Only 1 person on C-Suite has been at Embark for over a year. Tons of change and just bought out by private equity. Already squeezing the company

Pros

Great group or core people who still remain at the firm. Competitive pay and amazing benefits.

Cons

Everything that was good about Embark (mainly the core group of Embarkers from the beginning) have left the firm. The C-Suite doesn’t know the business or its people. Our new CEO is in way over his head. He has no knowledge of the professional services industry. He relies heavily on the people around him to make up for his shortcomings and relies heavily on his ability to memorize a script. Scary times.
