Pros

The office location was decent and pay always arrived on time, which honestly feels like the absolute bare minimum.

Cons

The boundary between work and personal life completely disappears at Proverb. I would finish a project at 6 PM only to receive Slack messages at 10 PM demanding immediate responses, and none of it ever felt optional, everything was treated like an emergency. Employees are expected to stay constantly available, night, weekends, anytime, and the moment you are not instantly reachable people act like you are failing your job. I stopped trying to create boundaries only creates tension and makes you look like you are not a team player, which becomes exhausting very quickly. The culture has zero respect for the fact that people have lives outside of work, families, sleep, or even basic personal time. The nonstop pressure and constant anxiety of feeling glued to your phone eventually wears you down mentally and emotionally every single day.

Pros

There is honestly nothing positive to highlight. The entire experience has been miserable from start to finish.

Cons

Timelines and expectations are completely unrealistic and unreasonable. Supervisors behave like narcissists who believe they are flawless while constantly belittling employees. Anyone seriously considering working here should reconsider immediately.

Pros

You can get a day off when there is a real emergency. Other than that, there are no pros to working here.

Cons

The leadership was evil. It might sound harsh, but that's the truth. They lied to the clients about the deliverables and then blamed them for not providing clear information. It was ridiculous. This attitude made them lose clients. Employees were also frustrated as they were overworked and stressed most of the time.
