Great culture, great benefits (unlimited PTO etc), lots of opportunities to travel and I absolutely love that it is remote.
Cons
I have no complaints except sometimes there are very tight deadlines and very last minute requests that need to be completed asap.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts. We're thrilled that your experience of working for Emerald has been highly positive. The core industries that we operate in are fast paced by nature and that's what makes our company an exciting place to work.
-Depending on what team you're on, you get a lot of autonomy. (on the flip side, see con- if you're on the wrong team)
-Good benefits
-Fun events & Travel opportunities
Cons
-People getting laid off left and right all time. One minute you have a team mate and the next they are just gone.
-Management is top heavy and operates like a fraternity
-If you're on the wrong team every move is watched
-Your job is NEVER safe
-Imagine with the acquisition that was just announced by Apollo that the reason for layoffs was to become lean before transition. I would hedge bets that this will also continue to be a numbers game and positions are going to be uncertain
-Sales plans are always ambiguous and there were even times where the plan wasn't out until several months into the year. Expected to sell over and above but didn't always have a sales plan to follow. It was always changing.
