Pros

The salary was competitive before the RTO mandate but with the requirement to return to the office it no longer feels like a strong benefit compared to other companies. The company once had a unique charm but since the acquisitions it has become more corporate and lost some of its original appeal.

Cons

Time off and flexible time off (FTO) policies are not as generous or employee-friendly as advertised. Leadership often makes false promises that are not followed through, leading to frustration and a lack of trust. Many good workers are leaving due to the RTO mandate, which is negatively impacting team morale and productivity.

Pros

Talented, hard-working people (many of whom are now leaving in droves) AdTheorent historically had strong tech and reputation The clients and opportunities were once exciting and meaningful

Cons

Cadent leadership has been a disaster: they don’t listen to the people who actually know the business, dismiss experience, and push their own agenda with no real strategy Brilliant AdTheorent talent has been ignored, sidelined, or driven out Turnover is out of control as top performers see the writing on the wall and are leaving The culture has completely collapsed: morale is at rock bottom and trust is gone HR appears more focused on damage control (posting fake positive reviews to cancel out the honest ones) than fixing real systemic issues

Pros

There is a good sense of job security.

Cons

I don’t want to offer too many specifics because the company is known to obtain this kind of information, try to place it on someone and use it against them in order to reinforce managements political agenda.
