Pros

Only filling this part in because Glassdoor requires it

Cons

This company lacks all forms of integrity and professionalism. I have never worked in such a caustic environment and one that is truly reminiscent of how the social structure was in high school. Toxic employees with zero business acumen, who produce no actual value, and encumber progress are rewarded with lavish salaries and bonuses. You may see accolades from local Boston sources such as Bostino. Don't be fooled, management uses unreported bonus like distributions to employees in an effort to amplify the company's votes/ratings on these platforms. Don't bother wasting any time working hard here as it will go unnoticed and unrewarded. You will, however, get the opportunity to interact with 20 somethings that have never actually been self sufficient functioning adults. The company boasts its benefits package which includes a never ending party atmosphere. Yet, the company is tanking and management is playing questionable political games to keep it afloat, up to and including, concerning and questionable ethics to do so. Speaking of management, you'll get little to no support from your current supervisor, all of the way up to the executive level. The "people strategy" department (HR) is notorious for instigating and actively contributing to the overall drama and immaturity this company seems to thrive on. Do not consider them a reliable resource for information or for support. If you're a professional and respectable adult, AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS
