      Pros

      -Can learn a lot of soft skills that are transferrable -I guess the perks of free coffee -The people who are actually doing the job

      Cons

      Where to begin. From an outside perspective, seems like a dream job with benefits and their inclusivity. However, most of it is a facade and feedback is not taken seriously. Micromanaged so much to the point that people are getting burnt out and I know I work hard. Can be performing very well, getting calls, connecting with clients but everyone is focused on what you do wrong. Treat employees like humans not robots. Pay sucks and expected to work over 40+ hours a week. Just not a great company to work at and can see my colleagues and I souls being squeezed to the point where I dread work.

      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.
