Vantaggi

- Amplify offers a decent starting salary as it has the financial backing of NewsCorp (don't expect a raise though). - There are still some people there that really care about doing quality work.

Svantaggi

- No room for career growth (rampant cronyism, value in previous title - not ability). - Refers to itself internally as a startup without a hint of irony (Amplify is a business unit of NewsCorp) which leads to long hours without an equity package or a constructive, open culture. - Serious culture issues -- saying that you have a startup culture doesn't make it so. - Schizophrenic priorities as the company only seems to think one month out and doesn't value learning from mistakes. - So. many. meetings. - Negative feedback, even presented constructively, makes you a target. - High turnover and difficulty retaining qualified people (see above points).

Vantaggi

There are some very dedicated, talented and well intentioned people who work there. For awhile it felt like the organization was building and doing great things. The salary felt fairly competitive with the industry standard.

Svantaggi

Don't look too closely under the hood if you don't want to stop believing in the illusion. The product is no longer as strong as it once was, the PD and CS have gone way downhill, they care more about profit than people and they are no longer mission driven but success and money driven. They talk a good game, but many people there are ruthless so watch your back. They do a good job of making you feel like it's the best place to work and you are lucky to be there, for awhile, but when the blook is off the rose, watch out.
