Pros

Only reason to work here is if you are unemployed and need the money

Cons

The high turnover rate speaks for itself. The employee moral is lower than any other company that I have worked. Management lacks clear direction and you get conflicting directives. The benefits are poor.

Pros

* Small team structure provides visibility into multiple areas of the client service & project ownership * Limited hierarchy allows for quicker exposure to decision-making, but not always meaningful involvement * Decent work-life balance and hybrid model

Cons

* Culture does not support upward feedback; raising concerns can negatively impact your standing rather than drive improvement * Leadership behavior can be reactionary and dismissive, undermining trust and open communication * Performance evaluations and compensation decisions lack credibility due to subjectivity and poor transparency
