Pros
Like the fast food industry can be a useful baptism of fire for someone who has never worked before, Cvent grinds its college employees hard and gives them valuable skills they can and should take elsewhere.
Cons
Despite values about being horizontal, this is easily the most hierarchical organisation I've ever worked for (and I've worked for government). Whether its management, HR, Legal, finance, Marketing/sales etc, no one can seem to actually make a decision. Everyone's hands are tied by a policy or a metric that dictates how they should work. Each month, a new metric or policy will be introduced, making the job harder to do over time and making collaborating a slower and slower process.
