Pros

Hardworking and collaborative colleagues , modern looking office, cool colleagues to be around during forced team events

Cons

You sell your soul to work here. Work hours - must have a solid reason to leave work before 6:30 - even after working a 10+ hr day. They "offer" lunch, aka: they can spy on you and find a way to feed you and get you back to your desk in 15 minutes. Inappropriate relationships between management and employees. CEO is verbally abusive and uses management by fear to get what he wants - then cries here and there to regain trust and empathy of employees. Owners have ZERO moral compass and treat women awfully. Say goodbye to family and friends if you start working here! Work first, colleagues second, team event third, then tend to family and children if you have any energy left.

Pros

* Truly supportive, collaborative team - people are humble, smart and always willing to help. * Culture that feels genuine: trust, flexibility, ownership, and a "people and client first" mindset * Exceptional benefits and work-life balance compared to most consulting firms * Leadership is accessible, transparent, and willing to make tough decisions when needed * CEO Frederic Brunner is inspiring - his passion for helping clients and building something meaningful makes you proud to work here * Global environment with colleagues across the US and Europe, creating great exposure and learning * Opportunities to step up, take ownership, and grow quickly * Strong focus on client value and doing the right thing

Cons

* Fast-paced environment may not be for everyone * Because the company is entrepreneurial, processes and structures evolve often * You need to be comfortable with change and self-management Bottom line: Genioo isn't perfect - no company is - but I feel genuinely proud to work here. The people, culture, leadership, and benefits make this a truly special place.
