Company culture driven by favoritism and lack of professional structure
Pros
Opportunities may be better for those based in the Suburbs or North regions, where criteria for success appear more balanced.
Cons
Lack of Professionalism: Compared to larger firms, the environment feels unpolished. Professional language and conduct are often missing, particularly among some higher-ups. Culture of Gossip: There is a heavy reliance on workplace gossip rather than clear, professional communication channels. Regional Disparities & Politics: While some regions operate fairly, others are dominated by self-preservation. Some leadership figures prioritize maintaining their own status over team growth or stability. Favoritism over Performance: Career longevity and evaluations seem to be based on personal relationships rather than actual performance metrics. High turnover in specific regions is a direct result of this "who you know" culture. Limited Growth: There is very little room for upward mobility, and job security can feel precarious if you are not in the inner circle of leadership.
