Pros

Most employees are very friendly and some are extremely talented and passionate about their jobs. There's definitely the opportunity for growth within the company if you push yourself (because management definitely won't help you grow since they want to retain staff in their own departments) and want to try working in different departments. Good benefits and number of PTO days

Cons

Pay is too low compared to the amount of work they expect you to complete. Management doesn't care about employees, but only about meeting deadlines and making clients happy. There are "discussions"/ panels/ surveys to gauge how employees feel, but it's just a front because nothing ever changes or is done. Management doesn't do anything to retain talent. Many people come and go which is really frustrating to have to continuously train new employees. You have to be achieve the impossible to be considered for promotions/ a decent raise, because doing your best and excelling with great metrics isn't cutting it.

Pros

Some managers were exceptional mentors and played a significant role in my professional growth. Good benefits and a reasonable severance package during workforce reductions. Opportunities to work on large-scale marketing initiatives and collaborate with experience professionals across the organization and globe.

Cons

Advancement opportunities often felt inconsistent and lacked any transparency. Leadership frequently emphasized data-driven decision making, but business decisions did not always appear to align with the metrics being presented. The company appeared hesitant to embrace emerging technologies and AI-driven approaches, limiting innovation in multiple areas. Job security is uncertain, and organizational changes occur frequently with little warning. Management quality varied significantly, While some leaders were outstanding, others struggled with communication, strategic direction, and people management. Career growth seemed to depend heavily on organizational politics and alignment with leadership rather than solely on measurable performance.
