Vantaggi

Remote work, some coworkers are great

Svantaggi

Constantly micromanaged and talked down to by managers/VPs. There is a constant inspection of billable hours which creates a lot of stress as there have been 4+ layoffs in the past year and a half. The last batch they did quietly, laying off groups of people one day at a time over 2 weeks, which was concerning as you wouldn't know who was gone until you tried to contact them. Management never addressed the employees about said layoff since it was done this way. There is clear divide between exec leadership and everyone else. It seems they have their cliques and you can never criticize one of them without putting a target on your back. Although the company is fully remote, they pretend to respect a work/life balance when in actuality they praise those who overwork themselves and get frustrated if you do not respond when contacted after hours.

Vantaggi

Lots of room to create your own structure and process. Respectful that employees are people. The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service. Tons of opportunity for learning. Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.

Svantaggi

It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

Vantaggi

You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.

Svantaggi

The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines. It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations. They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously. We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues.
