Pros

Very positive, dynamic, proud company. Top brass are very optimistic and enthusiastic. Has a library of online resources to help you develop your career and is more than willing to help you work harder and better.

Cons

The enthusiasm of the top management doesn't translate well down at the implementation side. The skills, experience and ideas of top management never make it down to the shop floor through the various layers. It leaves people quite disillusioned. Encourages a lot of extra self-learning to progress your career, even if you don't want to. A lot of pressure on deadlines. A lot of backstabbing as people try to protect themselves. Management don't seem to understand when the people just below are clouding the real reasons why issues have occurred.

Merkle Response

Pros

The people in my office are all awesome, friendly, helpful people. They are knowledgeable and I've learned a lot from them. The VP of our Department is a fair leader and empowers you to make a lot of tech decisions.

Cons

It's basically helping big companies market, so not the most passionate mission. But the work is still interesting.
