Pros

Nice and hardworking people, cool projects and clients, a lot of good benefits

Cons

Terrible leadership and management, most of it is absolute chaos and since the Media Monks merger, feels like the whole company has been burning to the ground for the past year or so

Pros

Good Clients and Projects: The company attracts high-profile clients and offers exciting projects that can be professionally rewarding.

Cons

Hierarchical Structure: The company's hierarchical structure can stifle creativity and hinder collaboration among employees. Difficult Bosses: Some of the bosses have been reported as difficult to work with, creating a challenging work environment. Instant Feedback Culture: While feedback is important, the company's instant feedback culture might be overwhelming and counterproductive for some employees. Lack of Benefits for Remote Workers: Remote employees may feel neglected as the company doesn't offer adequate benefits or support for their remote work setup. Disparity in Salaries: The significant gap between what the company charges clients and what it pays employees, especially developers, can be disheartening for the workforce.
