Pros

Good environment, good pay for recent grads that don't have a specific career path in mind.

Cons

The industry is very niche so you don't gain any hard skills to build a career on. You are working on projects but you will never be an actual project manager. You can capitalize the soft skills you gain only if you are pursuing a career in sales.

Pros

the only pros are the salary and two hybrid days

Cons

Do not take a job with Guidepoint, even if you were a strong student in college and consider yourself a hard worker. The project managers are fine, but the team leads are awful. You won’t learn any tangible skills; the work largely consists of reaching out to people on LinkedIn for hours on end. On top of that, they will let people go very easily. Stay away from this company.
