Pros

Some interesting projects, the culture is very non-big4, and it's very social -- though too much focus on social.

Cons

If you don't want a family, no problem. If you're female, and want a family, no problem. But if you're male, and want a family, LOOK ELSEWHERE. They only support women after the birth of a child. Good place if you like wasting money on flashy, loud quarterlies and events. Thanks, but I'd rather have a better bonus, 401K, and other benefits.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
