Pros

- Talented co-workers - Decent benefits and compensation - Good environment to learn key entry level skills

Cons

- Middle management and leadership do not communicate effectively and put much more weight on metrics than development and mission - Feels like the company is suffering post acquisition. Heritage CEB employees feel like they are left to fend for themselves. - Professional development and career pathing is misguided at best and a lie at worst. At entry we were told that we'd be preparing for a promotional interview after 9 months and in a new position after 12. After 9 months this didn't materialize.

Pros

Totally remote and the hours that you work can be flexible. The other designers are very friendly and willing to help you out when solving problems. The company provides you with equipment to work with. They also forbid the use of AI in their presentations with is extremely respectable.

Cons

You are paid based on billable hours. Management is strict about how much time you spend on each project, but you also have to make sure to meet a quota of billable hours each week. It can be hard to find a balance and the time counting down while working is stressful.
