Don't trust this company, take the experience and run
Pros
This company does a great job of giving recent college graduates tangible work experience. They primarily hire recent graduates for their analyst and associate level. If you have any post-grad work experience before applying, negotiate the associate level. It's arbitrary and is used to gatekeep/separate people who have stayed at the company for a full year, and work experience is how you get around that barrier. You will know within the first month if the role is for you, trust your instincts if it doesn't feel like a right fit, start heading toward the door. The company did offer employees an opportunity to take an exit package before doing their massive layoff. Please read cons list for more info on layoffs.
Cons
This company does not value people and only operates based on election cycles. They only speak about time as it refers to election cycles (every two years). During 2022 they hired like crazy to fill roles and bolster teams, only to fire 150 people in January after saying there wouldn't be layoffs. Get your experience and get out, that's the best advice I can give to any young professional. Manager level (2.5-3 years experience at the company) was also not safe. There was no loyalty to people in this layoff. If you join this company in the year 2024 your job is not secure and know that after the election you very well might go. Don't coast here, get your experience and do what you want to do and get out. PTO is unlimited, but you will not get approved for any in the 5 months before elections, and if so you will be heavily leaned on still and won't be able to unplug. This job does not value your personal time. If this were a job paid hourly you would have double your salary. You will work long days and nights, the company becomes insane close to an election, and there are no boundaries with your personal life.
