Pros
All the benefits you can expect from a Bay Area tech company. New offices. Formalized promotion and career development tracks. Cool benefits.
Cons
Quantcast product is a day late and a dollar short. A managed service DSP pivoting to a self-service DSP is behind the industry. Leading self-service DSPs like The Trade Desk, DV360, and others have taken significant marketshare and frankly, it's too late. We were probably the best in direct response, but that "super power" is quickly eroding with the shutdown of cookie-based targeting in Chrome 2 years from now. No one wants to acknowledge that internally which is mind-blowing. The talent of Quantcast is on a noticeable decline. We no longer can recruit and retain the best talent. Most of the best talent has left or is in the process of leaving. Big-ego legacy employees are left who are consistently underachieving and resting on their laurels, letting their "reputations" do the talking. Someone should tell these people that just because you've been here for 4-5 years, doesn't mean you're special. The SF sales floor is a bunch of bros (diversity and inclusion?) who should be told that being promoted to a manager role doesn't mean anything when you're hemorraghing talent left and right. You're the just ones left on the Titanic while the ship is taking on water. Politics, politics, politics. Countless leaders on the sales and AM side have been booted, some for good reasons. Others were killed for poor reasons or ELT settling vendettas. When you see good leaders punted because they took a stand for what was right, it shows you how dysfunctional the company is. If you're a current leader in the commercial org, watch out. It can and statistically is probably going to happen you. Look up the number of commercial regimes since 2016. The average lifetime is 1-1.5 years? That's not adapting for the better. That's a revolving door propped open by unreal expectations and outdated products.
