Pros

At this point, there are none

Cons

The worst professional experience of my career by far. Upper management changes company direction every few months, and internal processes are constantly being modified. Workload continues to increase to accommodate the gaps left by the multiple RIFs that have taken place. I was told on multiple occasions that a pay adjustment was more than likely, only to be informed that my salary wouldn’t be adjusted. Perhaps the only feature that meets with high approval across the company, the remote working structure, has now been rescinded for those living in Athens and NY. This is despite constant assurances that the flexible model was core to Persado’s approach.

Pros

Overall it is a very collaborative environment and the team is very welcoming to new hires. The teams have deep knowledge of the platform and industry and a general passion for helping solution for customers.

Cons

A lot to learn quickly, but everyone is quite helpful.

Pros

not many left to speak of

Cons

new leadership has brought in a culture of micromanagement. Benefits are rolling back - no summer Fridays, not holiday break off. teams are continually asked to do more with less. No growth environment - that means the company isn’t growing, your career isn’t growing and your pay isn’t growing. Title bumps only for favorites, no raises - lavish salaries are reserved for friends of the new executives.
