Pros

Great place to gain some short term experience due to the scope, diversity, and size of clients.

Cons

The executive teams lack of effective communication and people skills results in a murky environment and culture. On the surface, the company looks and feels great, but once you dig a bit deeper, you realize the words are what you want to hear but the actions speak volumes. There is a lot of reactivity and not a lot of proactivity. Think of this as a stepping stone in your career: you'll learn a lot and get involved in some interesting work and clients, but it's probably not a place to stay long-term. Intensity is a core value here, so if that doesn't resonate with you, this might not be the best fit.

Pros

Graphite provides all the tools I need for success, and a team of people I love working with.

Cons

Startup environment can be a bit hectic at times, but that's not necessarily a con for me.

Pros

At first, I was extremely impressed with Graphite and how they conducted their business. They seemed intentional, ready to invest in their people, and welcoming. Unfortunately, I quickly realized that their style of leadership and management was a fend-for-yourself mentality, and their promises of help and training were never followed through on. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience. The people are nice, and I made some good connections working here, but if they continue to burn out their team members, they will have tons of turnover.

Cons

- no work-life balance (even with “unlimited PTO”, you are constantly worrying about work and the stress of the workload. - leadership that plays favorites and doesn’t communicate - constantly told to meet standards but told to not work overtime. Ended up working 50 hours a week for months.
