Pros
Fully remote, Good PTO, Casual environment
Cons
The fundamental problem at Liquid is favoritism. The entire senior management level under executive leadership is a group of close friends, and that friendship circle extends into executive leadership. This would be fine, but people that aren't in the circle don't get promoted to senior management. Even if they have more experience. Even if they are more qualified for those particular roles.
So, people in the circle are continuously promoted, while top performers are not. They are inexplicably put into roles that aren't aligned with their skills, just to keep the friends at the same level. This is obviously unfair to others in the organization. To make it worse, one of the managers is a real problem when it comes to respecting his teammates and direct reports. Leadership is painfully aware, but he is in the circle so he doesn't receive any real consequences. No matter what department you're in, if you don't bend to his will, you will be forced out sooner or later.
If you try to address these problems with leadership, you don't last long there. You are listened to, and there is talk that it will be corrected, but the right kind of change doesn't happen. Good people are let go. It's not good for clients or for the agency.
