Pros

* Very smart and talented people used to work here, they have all since quit or been laid off. Pay attention to the reviews on this website, you'll see that within the last year things have taken a very swift dip south. To anyone considering a job here: my advice to you is to look elsewhere.

Cons

* If you're reading this review considering applying for a job here, run away fast. They'll sell you on a cool startup culture with nerf guns and happy hours but it's a facade. The entire company runs on drama, it's like a middle school except millions of dollars are being thrown around to see who can give themselves the biggest party or the biggest bonus. There's a reason this company's reputation in the industry has spiraled downward and continues to do so. * The way the "management" runs this company is terrifying. False promises for clients and employees alike. Questionable morals on every level and a culture of corruption that spreads throughout the company like a disease. * Very frequent layoffs with no warning and done in a very public and unprofessional manner. Layoffs can occur to anyone at any time so if you plan on working here, always have a backup plan. PH will easily lay off huge chunks of the company all at once which heavily affects the flow of projects, sales, and client interactions. There seems to be little forethought about who is eliminated each time. Be prepared to explain to your clients why half the team working on their project is suddenly gone. * Seemingly exorbitant spending from the upper management. From the employee perspective, it feels like PH prefers to spend its money on expensive after-parties, huge booths at conferences, fancy dinners and drinks, and high-end hotels instead of putting that money towards the actual "product". This is very off-putting when you're an overworked employee barely making ends meet with your "startup" salary. From the employee perspective there seems to be a lot of extreme mismanagement of funds. * Very poor work/life balance. Most people work 50-60 hours a week minimum. Most departments lost many of their workers in the last few rounds of layoffs or they quit so pretty much every department is understaffed. Do not expect any recognition or a raise despite the amount of work you're handling. * Poor company culture. This company, in my opinion, facilitates a culture of fear, drama, and corruption but hey, at least there's a foosball table.
