Pros

Shanda was great for onboarding

Cons

- Management was awful and doesn't value new employees - Cult environment - Metrics made no business sense and encouraged falsifying documentation in CRM to please management's reports - No work / life balance as projected in the interview process, even tenured employees complained about constantly being on the chopping block - Swoon's turn over rate & company reviews are false, only 2 of the 12 people I started with are still with the company - If you don't drink the Swoon koolaid you're gone - A new person with no prior industry experience was bashed publicly for something they should've been given kudos for, and turn it into a trainable moment, but instead made the new employee cry.

Pros

Free lunches. They will listen to your problems, they will try and work with you if you are currently their employee.

Cons

After getting hired, it didn't work out with a client of Swoon, but after that 1st assignment hardly any communication with recruiter to seek out new positions.
