      Pros

      Nice people to work with Good location

      Cons

      - Salary & commissions: they tell you in the interview you will get 10-15K if you achieve the targets. This is a lie. You would need to overachieve the target x3 times minimum which is unrealistic. - People burn out here quickly. - No career development for CDAs (unrealistic conditions to become Senior working for Dublin projects) - Huge difference Dublin VS London projects - Not enough inspiring leadership, toxic environment. - Very repetitive and boring. They pretend that is the most skilled task in the world. If you want to spend 4 years at uni to sit on LinkedIn adding strangers all day then this is the perfect job for you. - The role doesn't help you gain any actual marketable skills that help you grow professionally or can be used to help you find your next role.

      Pros

      Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

      Cons

      Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

      Pros

      Good colleagues, arguably a good job post college (for like a year MAX)

      Cons

      I cannot stress enough how terrible this company is. Spent 5 years there, and watched it go further downhill every year. You leave with only soft skills (if that), and 0 actual industry knowledge. Seriously, you leave only knowing a bunch of Hocus Pocus. I am really surprised this company hasn't been bought yet. Or merged. On my team alone, we lost 7 out of our 9 managers since January... either due to layoffs or them quitting. Pay is low. There are no bonuses and it's very difficult to get a raise. 90k in NYC is poverty. There are bright people that come in with Masters, and PhDs, and MBAs -- handing them 90k is insulting.
