Pros

Some fun coworkers, entry level experience

Cons

Insincere management, discriminatory tendencies, they encourage long work days even though they claim to promote work/life balance. If you want to move up and be recognized by director then you need to be white and work 16-24 hour days. Staff is visibly exhausted and looking for their way out. They keep up the fun culture facade for 6 months and then their true colors show. Pay isn’t competitive compared to how much they expect from associates.

Pros

Great group of really smart people in the field, and the work environment is very stimulating. Overall a good place to work. It’s a very social group of employees, and leadership is transparent, responsive, and willing to make adjustments where needed. Everyone is pretty down to earth.

Cons

Promotions tend to be slow. Priorities and deadlines shift quickly, which is normal for this stage of the company but can get exhausting sometimes.
