Pros

- Amazing work culture - Allows you to be creative and Dream Big - Collaborative environment - Great benefits

Cons

- No career growth. They don't promote the right people or or truly value employees. - You will travel to multiple offices, even though you are assigned to one. - No work life balance. ESPECIALLY for working parents. - Does not pay great. - Leadership is non existent. You are on your own at all times. - There are no processes or structure. - You live in 1,000 different programs and documents. So you spend more time searching than doing your job efficiently.
