Pros

This wonderfully styled building is full of some of the super smartest people you will ever meet. The amount of dedication to projects and clients is admirable. They advertise themselves as the coolest place to work and it IS the coolest place I've ever worked. Drinking at lunch is kosher, the bar is always stocked if you want a spirit during a meeting, and everyone is always working on something to be amazed by so pride comes naturally. They will roll out the red carpet to welcome you and encourage your networking within the company.

Cons

Their commitment to their "core" values is taken to a place beyond bizarre. The ambiguous nature of these values leaves so much room for interpretation that it is easy to build a case against you (and they will use it against you). I was told that I should be flattered to have gotten an offer because they were: a) looking for over 2 months to fill the position, b) very picky about who they hired; but then I was stuck not meeting the expectations of not meeting one of their core values and that became the emphasis of my employment. NOT the fact that my training manager left after 2-3 weeks of my arrival, NOT the fact that despite my training manager leaving I still took initiative, and NOT the fact that I persevered despite it being obvious they were building a case against me.

Pros

Some teams include genuinely talented people, and certain client projects can be interesting to work on. A few colleagues try hard to create a positive atmosphere despite broader challenges.

Cons

The organization struggles with clarity and consistency. Expectations are often vague, and feedback tends to be sporadic or contradictory. Standards can shift depending on who is reviewing the work, creating an environment where it’s difficult to understand what “success” actually looks like. Decision-making follows a command and control management pattern, but without communication to make expectations clear. At the same time, employees are "encouraged" to take initiative, but independent decisions are frequently overturned without clear reasoning. This makes things incredibly unpredictable and hard to build confidence or momentum in any role. There is also a noticeable pattern of rapid turnover — many employees rotate out within a short timeframe. This churn leads to instability, knowledge gaps, and a culture that feels more transactional than supportive. The workplace atmosphere can lean competitive and ego-driven rather than collaborative.
