Pros
The Knot and WeddingWire merged at the end of last year. Some people view change negatively as it is not how things were. Personally, I'm super excited to see where things go. These are the two most widely recognized brand names in the wedding space coming together and I foresee a ton of opportunity ahead for a lot of employees here. Naturally, there is a bit of unknown and stabilization that needs to happen (as needs to happen for any huge business merger) - and it's going to take a bit of time. I feel like both companies had pretty similar company cultures before merging (if you read old Glassdoor accounts for each). The culture is super modern, casual, innovative, work hard/play hard mentality. Lots of cool amenities in the offices that make it a fun work environment. The nature of our business is positive and uplifting which I think does trickle down to the employee base (or at least to most employees). There are always going to be negative and positive reviews on a company based on an individual's personal experience and their specific role/department, but I've personally loved my time here, the people here, the perks here (catered food, unlimited PTO, hair salon & speakeasy in the DC office as well as amazing views / space in the NY office, events outside of work, etc). The people you meet and friends you make here are honestly a huge bonus as well. I see myself at this company for a long time to come.
Cons
Things are stabilizing right now - you have to be a bit okay with the unknown and not having all of your questions immediately answered. Also, not all roles/departments have super outlined career paths in terms of promotions - it varies role to role.
