Pros

Decent client portfolio Nice office space in NYC Great health insurance benefits though they switch providers every year Good pockets are few and far in between but can be found. Look middle management.

Cons

Toxic culture that rewards toxicity. Lots of unspoken rules and bullying. Unlimited PTO means proving your PTO deserves to be honored or not — always says it's medical or kids. Steadily decreasing benefits YoY with no explanation. Within 3 years we went from mostly remote to our CEO not even acknowledging remote employees. and 'remote' here means you're expected to do all the work while your office coworkers are at required functions. Was promoted at 10k less than the most recent hire at that level, and that promotion had to be begged for. Gaslights you with "we are doing really well" in every town hall then explains layoffs with "that's how business economics work" and refuses to ever give bonuses, promotions, or meet inflation with raises.

Pros

Amazing & talented people, unlimited PTO, relaxed hybrid office policy, and competitive pay. I've been here over 5 years now and am not going anywhere anytime soon.

Cons

Limited in where they can hire by office locations

Pros

Organized environment with processes in place for the most part. Good office benefits.

Cons

Really depends on your team and the accounts you're on. Low pay and little room for promotions. You basically have to be comfortable with the salary you start out with. The New York office isn't that social, even though there are events. Most people just keep to themselves. Just an average corporate environment. In the last few years, I've seen a lot of change after the most recent CEO was hired. They're regressing their benefits (less time for parental leave, no summer fridays, hammering down on timesheets and time off). Not really coming off as "people first" imo. As a PM, there aren't many opportunities for promotions. They openly say to all jobs that you only get promotions if there's an opening, NOT if you've worked for it. They're also increasing the number of jobs that are outsourced in Bangalore, clearly trying to save a buck.
