We recognize that not every employee's experience will be what we would like it to be. Emerald operates in tough and competitive industries. We have looked closely at our compensation packages and now feel that we are more competitive. We appreciate you taking the time to share your views in writing.

Pros

The teams are good and make you feel supported in your work. They have a generous PTO policy which allows for work life balance.

Cons

Senior leaders are unclear and have unrealistic expectations. Get more work and projects and never a pay increase.

Pros

Emerald is an excellent company that has a lot to offer to many different job positions. The company culture is wonderful as well as many of the people who work there. They are also very tech-savvy, which is something I greatly appreciate.

Cons

There is an extreme lack of training. I had to train myself for my role and still do not know exactly what I am supposed to be doing after a year of working here. There are definitely sources of tension within my team and at times, there is very poor communication. It is easy to feel lost and not receive the help that you need.
