Pros

GREAT people. Honestly do no know how they do it. Mid to Senior level leadership are fantastic - I would work for/with them any time. Highest level leadership is kind of a non factor which says something I guess. Excellent health benefits. Refreshingly great work/life balance. Important to note how great the benefits are; they are grouped together in the star rating system ("Compensations & Benefits") -- if these were to be split apart, "Compensation" would get 2 stars and "Benefits" would get 5.

Cons

Put simply, pay is low. There is not really a clear path to career advancement, once you get to a certain level. There could be a stronger push to do more boundary (and client) -pushing work. Agency seems to accept a "production shop" role.

A person can learn a lot from various aspects of toxic company behavior working here.

Racism, nepotism, ageism, anything toxic you can name — Firewood's got it!
