Pros

They are working hard to foster some new improvements. A good place if you have a family and need to coast while making some interesting work from time to time. Easiest if your'e white.

Cons

Negative environment for BIPOC employees. Seldomly follows through with commitments to the BIPOC community. Slow with change and progress. Fosters unhealthy work environments. Leadership has a hard rime acknowledging when they drop the ball.

Pros

- Amazing work culture and benefits - Great variety of projects available with top global brands - Growth opportunities

Cons

Towards the end, a lot of compressed timelines and resource allocation made it harder to deliver good quality work. I get it's mostly the clients, but I think as an agency Instrument could also stand up for its employees better. Saw a lot of people getting burnt out at the end.

Pros

The people is the reason why I never wanted to leave.

Cons

The random layoffs and terrible managers not advocating for your growth while other people with great managers got promotions like crazy.
