Pros

-There is often free food -Colleagues are generally nice -Flexible work from home policy -Good reason to move to DC

Cons

-The pay in not competitive, most entry-level workers are getting support from their parents -Teams and management are extremely cliquey and favoritism is obvious -The culture is very young with many employees in their 20s and 30s who are close friends outside of work leading to an unprofessional work environment, you will also be ostracized if you don't go to the bars/happy hours constantly -Performance goals are based on ridiculous numbers - if you're paired with a strong sales rep, they will do all of your work for you, but if you're paired with a weaker rep you have zero chance of meeting your goals and management knows it -The interviews are purposely vague so that you don't know what you're signing up for - this company preys on new graduates, many of whom are gone within 1 or 2 years max - the job is calling and emailing university leaders all day long, even those who have explicitly told you they want to be left alone -Managers are extremely micromanagey and you might be managed by someone 2 or 3 years older than you -Entry-level staff are treated as a dime a dozen - nobody outside of your manager/team even pretends to care about you or talks to you -Middle and senior management are often rude and unapproachable - will walk by you a hundred times and not even say hello

Pros

Had a history of supporting employee needs (e.g. hybrid)

Cons

- has become obsessed with in-office culture and "being present" (i.e., super limited full remote roles now), would not be surprised if the exec team submits a RTO mandate soon - compensation is under what you should receive, regardless of tenure or level. The amount of work far outpaces your salary. -because of the point above, burnout and a culture of irritability is omnipresent. - do NOT take the senior promotion, it just results in more work (you do multiple smaller projects in addition to your current workload and now lead trainings) and a small pay increase that does not even match inflation. - expectation that less senior staff have to interpret everything, big lack of clarity between need-to-have feedback and preference-edit feedback - instead of annual raises that match inflation, you get to spend full days quarterly with the team talking about topics that have nothing to do with your day-to-day - Management has become very clique-y, good luck moving into management if you're not already a part of the clique (or fully remote) - Unpaid overtime is expected but you will get shamed for not doing everything during the workday. - We currently work with the military and with the police as recruitment strategists so ICE will probably be next
