Pros

Some truly amazing people work here. Really talented, and I've made some great friends.

Cons

Very little upward growth. It's honestly so hard to get consistent feedback. I've had 3 managers in my time here, same issue with all of them. There's no consistency in any systems, tools, programs, etc. If you are on multiple accounts at a time, it's like having to speak multiple different languages. They all work completely differently. There's little to no onboarding for new projects/accounts. Trying to talk to HR about concerns really does nothing. They'll only respond if you send multiple emails, and even if the problem isn't solved, if you stop pestering, they'll consider the matter closed.

Pros

No pressure to go into the office during these times, however they are also organizing fun events for employees to meet each other in person if they’d like

Cons

Barely has an HR department, difficult to get promoted depending on which department you work in, has a lot of growing pains. Has a lot of office politics
