Pros

Offers compensation in line with other companies. If you are blood related to someone on the management team then you're golden.

Cons

I was a female victim of sexually harassment at CDI perpetrated by a male coworker. I reported the harassment to my management and nothing was done. The perpetrator is in sales and only received a verbal warning - a slap on the wrist. The worst part of the experience was the female CEO knew all of this was happening. She does not stand up for womankind and only cares about money. The COO conspired with the CEO to terminate me because I was "trouble". Well I found out the COO and another female coworker are fooling around behind closed office doors - hypocrits all of them. good luck working at this company

Pros

Going from a toxic employer to AHEAD has been the best change for my happiness. Everyone at AHEAD is motivated, positive, and willing to help each other. I no longer dread logging into work, and even enjoy the days where I have to work a bit longer or go the extra mile, because I know it will be appreciated and I can take the time I need in return. Having unlimited PTO you don't get shamed for using is amazing. I've been supported in my efforts and have a lot of autonomy without micromanagement, which is a great feeling. Upper management really trusts you and trusts in the hire.

Cons

While being in a high-growth company is exciting, it can also be exhausting. Sometimes you need the "rocket ship" to take a beat, but there is no real lull. More company-wide time off would be helpful so that you can get a break where you don't come back to 50+ emails per day. The only other downside is that due to the fabulous employee retention, people stay in their roles for a looong long time. There are not a lot of opportunities for upward mobility as a result, from what I have seen thus far.
