Pros

Cons

I tried to put up boundaries with my manager (not setting up projects during family dinner, being able to go to workout classes after work, not responding to emails while on vacation, not responding to emails while at movies, musicals, etc.) and was told that being offline for that long of periods of time was unacceptable. I told my manager I couldn't set up a project because I was at an engagement party, and she told me that if I wasn't able to meet the expectations of the job, the job wasn't for me. She also said that she needed to be aware of when I would be offline every day - ummm no, I am not sharing my social calendar with you. My team was told on numerous times that we had to be "available" at all hours of the day or else we would lose business or ultimately be fired. This job sent me to therapy because it was so incredibly invasive, and it ruined my ability to set up boundaries and separate my personal life from my work life. The last thing that sent me over the edge was having two team meetings per day. I'll leave it at that. My manager was so inept she felt like she needed two team meetings per day to stay up to date.

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

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
