      Improving but still dependent on the team and leader

      Marketing manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      the experience at Emerald depends on which department and which senior leader you work for. While I enjoy my team, there are departments at Emerald which I would not recommend a friend to work in. Pay has gotten substantially better over the years because they started listening to employees and benefits have been great as well without added cost which I appreciate

      Cons

      Emerald used to have a flexible remote work environment which is now changing and people are being asked to come back in the office and sit on zoom calls instead of being able to work from home on zoom calls the in person office culture they are trying to build is impossible when you have clients and teammates working all over the country and need to be on calls to speak to them all day long
