Pros

The hybrid work schedule and flexibility are greatly appreciated, though the policy has been shifting towards less flexible recently. Positive place to work with good people, culture, and fair compensation. Opportunities for growth and learning. Management that trusts employees to take ownership of their work.

Cons

High workloads and occasional overtime make the additional commute time harder to balance with work demands.

Pros

We are committed to delivering creative solutions and treating client challenges as our own and this is priceless. Our diverse, international team is innovative, hardworking, smart and driven. My colleagues are phenomenal, witty people who are ready to lend a hand or a be a sounding board for ideas. The company inspires and empowers us to live and embrace the company values. We are given paid time off for learning, community volunteering, and training to help us navigate this quickly evolving industry.

Cons

If you thrive when frequently shifting gears, this is the place for you. When client needs change suddenly, we adapt quickly alongside them. While many find this dynamic environment rewarding and exciting, it may not be for everyone. Many days are full-on with much to do in this fast-paced environment.
