Pros

- Amazing PTO - Young work environment - Great perks such as discounts, incentive trips, company happy hours, and summer Fridays (kind of).

Cons

- Managers and marketers had their own seperate expectations and way of handling individual employees. Managers in office were extreme! They hovered constantly and even showed up to a private team luncheon to wish someone goodbye just to make sure people were discussing why she left. - Racism and Prejudice: there was a slew of reports and complaints about micro aggressions in the workspace including a white associate calling a black associate the n-word at a company sponsored happy hour. They way upper managed handled everything resulted in other associates being silenced and the white associate moved to a better office. - Business model isn't sustainable anymore. The practice of constantly sending and communicating with potential clients even after they've expressly declined is hard enough, but is made harder by the ridiculous numbers associates and marketers are expected to clear. - Poor training: bing trained by other associates isn't always helpful.

Pros

Had a history of supporting employee needs (e.g. hybrid)

Cons

- has become obsessed with in-office culture and "being present" (i.e., super limited full remote roles now), would not be surprised if the exec team submits a RTO mandate soon - compensation is under what you should receive, regardless of tenure or level. The amount of work far outpaces your salary. -because of the point above, burnout and a culture of irritability is omnipresent. - do NOT take the senior promotion, it just results in more work (you do multiple smaller projects in addition to your current workload and now lead trainings) and a small pay increase that does not even match inflation. - expectation that less senior staff have to interpret everything, big lack of clarity between need-to-have feedback and preference-edit feedback - instead of annual raises that match inflation, you get to spend full days quarterly with the team talking about topics that have nothing to do with your day-to-day - Management has become very clique-y, good luck moving into management if you're not already a part of the clique (or fully remote) - Unpaid overtime is expected but you will get shamed for not doing everything during the workday. - We currently work with the military and with the police as recruitment strategists so ICE will probably be next
