Pros

- Giveaways for people who write positive reviews on Glassdoor. This, despite the potential to run afoul of FTC Disclosure requirements, leads to transparently fake reviews...but at least there are 5 stars by them. - The money they save by not providing severance to laid off employees is spent on things like a Trivia night. The Trivia night has free appetizers. - 7 flavors of LaCroix in the fridge. That includes lime.

Cons

- They don't listen to the experts they hire to do a job. It's obvious they've been successful at one thing. But, until they listen to people who are better than them at other things, the company won't go anywhere. - As others have said on this site, the CMO is a feckless contrarian who everyone from her team to the owners actively avoid. Everything people said about her is true but nothing is done about it. - People uprooted their life to move and work on this project team. Then, they were laid off with little reason and no severance. You shouldn't work here unless you are willing to dip into your emergency fund when the owners change their mind.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I understand you did not have a positive experience at PEAK6, and as part of the marketing team you likely would have worked on various projects that were highly dynamic. It is important as part of our core values to operate collaboratively, ethically and with integrity. We strive to create a culture with open communication. We have never offered any incentives for anyone to provide positive feedback, and we do not ask employees to make decisions that run counter to ethical or regulatory principles. Please reach out to either Judi Hart, our Chief People Officer at jhart@peak6.com, or to me at bgoldberg@peak6.com if you are willing more about your experience. Thanks, Brad
