Pros

PTO benefits (but nothing else)

Cons

Shark culture with no collaboration or teamwork. Company doesn't provide merit increases. Bonus pool is limited because most of it goes to Partners on guarantees that are often under-performing.

Pros

Work from home gives flexibility, time off is good.

Cons

No raises ever, bonuses are not a motivator nor an indicator of the work you do. No one seems to know why you receive the bonus you do, it is just from a spreadsheet handed to your direct manager who apparently has no influence in the decision. Raises never happen and no one can answer if they are coming or not—you just never get one.
