Pros

Good coworkers, good for networking

Cons

People are promoted into management based on who is friends with senior leadership. I have had great managers and I have had horrible managers that made me want to run into the street. They also constantly are reorganizing, so if you do have a bad manager you’ll probably get a new one in the new year Poor communication from leadership, they are trying to push everyone to the limit or fire them. I know one “key leader” hates wfh and hates the Austin office and their game plan is to get rid it. They have also circled through so many c-suites in the past few years, it’s wild. If you get a job here I’d recommend staying a maximum of two years

Pros

Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

Cons

Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

Pros

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
