Pros

THE GOOD: It's a great team, especially for younger members, since new grad hires are the primary recruiting source. You get to work on big brands, and you're typically working on exciting business challenges rather than marketing fluff. Speaking only from my experience on the design team, most of us didn't have to work a ton of overtime regularly. THE OK: The in-person experience is heavily emphasized. There are always fun things going on—from gaming to sports to live music. The downside is that not being seen at these events can be a knock against your future at the company. While it's a hybrid model now, more in-office time is the general trajectory. The largest team in size and influence is the tech team, especially since the founders have engineering backgrounds. Managers are doers. This means you can trust that they know what they're talking about, but your needs may have to take a backseat if they're heads-down on a project.

Cons

Managers don't receive substantial training, so employee experiences vary considerably. Again, these are super friendly people who are smart and good at what they do, but not all managers are equally ready to help their team members grow and thrive. Decisions are made from the top down, with the mindset that "a lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep."

Pros

On the positive side, the company does offer regular salary raises and provides snacks and food for employees. However, these benefits may not be enough to overcome the negative aspects of the work culture.

Cons

The company has several major issues with its work culture and employee management. One of the key issues is the lack of senior talent, which leads to a lack of experience and valuable insights into projects. Their business model is pretty simple (and awful). They only contract juniors. That creates an inefficient work environment, as well as limits opportunities for growth and innovation. Another concern is the rigid work schedule and lack of flexibility, which make it difficult for employees to balance their personal and professional lives. The strict office attendance requirements and limited remote work options are inflexible and limiting. Additionally, the lack of clear roles and responsibilities, as well as the promotion process that seems to be based on factors such as office attendance and personal relationships. A lack of clear expectations for promotions and relying on others' opinions for performance evaluations create an unpredictable work environment where people grow depending on time and if their managers like them.
