      "Finance is a mess"

      Pros

      The people who work at Compass are great. A lot of like minded people trying to grow their career.

      Cons

      The structure of the finance department is a mess. Everyone is underpaid and there is very little upward mobility. Even though they promote you, you don't receive much more money. Management doesn't seem to care about your career path and there is very little direction on where your career can go. They HR department is a mess and in their last review, they messed up the whole companies promotions and paychecks.

      Horrible experience

      Pros

      Decent pay and benefits, great parties and some of the smartest and friendliest staff.

      Cons

      Incompetent managers, favoritism at an all time high, lack of structure, imbalance in workload (so much work), cult like company culture (very strange), pace and budget limit project success, leadership has no ownership, expanding fast without solving the issues, no room for design creativity, they just want inexperienced flyer pushers with never ending deadlines. If your a designer or in marketing I would stay away from this place.

      You're on your own

      Pros

      Standard tech startup perks and cool office; flexible work hours; gym reimb, benefits package.

      Cons

      You're on your own: No support for growing staff, no guidance / training for managers, no HR aka People & Culture partners except marketing and tech depts; all other employees and regions (!) are directed to one (!) junior rep. The most attention you get is during the recruting phase. Once you're in, you're on your own.
