Pros
The culture is a draw. Meltwater has great health insurance and employee events such as an innovation day and frequent breaks for drinking events or games. There is also flexibility in working hours and often food is brought in (along with already existing snacks). Startup like feel.On the surface - a great company.
Cons
The drama. There seems to be a lot of silos and emotionally charges decisions from upper management, which is comprised of mostly sales professionals that have worked there for a few years that - to be honest are not qualified for the positions they hold (from an educational standpoint). This is part of why major decisions are poorly thought out and emotionally charged. If you have strong ideas and like to challenge the norm this is NOT place for you. Management bruises easy from suggestions from subordinates. And although there is a preconception of flexible work hours - the time you take will be marked against you.
