Pros

Flexible work schedule (allowed to work from home 3x a week and allowed to pick which 2 days you would go into the office). Great salaries and bonus plans, even the administrative staff gets bonuses. Unlimited PTO. Just overall great employee benefits, the best that I've had as an EA working for any other company. The team I had worked amazing together.

Cons

Unfortunately, they will lay people off with no notice and continue as if you never existed. Your job here truly depends on who your boss is / who you work for. Some of the people in leadership are absolutely amazing and nice people, luckily for me, the gentlemen I worked for were all so nice and made me love my job. However, there are some leaders who caused people to absolutely hate their job.

Pros

One thing I genuinely appreciated was that the C-suite seemed invested in keeping everyone in the loop. The monthly town halls felt like more than just a formality and gave you a real sense of where the company was headed. When you had a good stretch, people noticed. The company feels like it has real momentum and on a macro level.

Cons

Leadership was inconsistent in my experience and seemed to depend heavily on which manager you ended up with. It often felt like luck of the draw. I personally found the planning process to be more reactive than strategic, with urgency only kicking in once results were already suffering rather than getting ahead of it. The workplace culture also had a gossip element that I found draining over time. My biggest frustration was around performance recognition. I observed situations where reported numbers didn't seem to reflect reality, yet the consequences appeared minimal at best. I would have liked to see more transparency and accountability around how top performers were identified and rewarded, because in my experience the current approach didn't always feel equitable to those who were playing by the rules.
