Pros

Great work/life balance. Healthy environment with friendly people.

Cons

Employees would be hired via an outside agency and had to "transition" to a direct AE employee--this was a long process and never happened for most, mean while they would make new hires who were direct employees. There was no real possibility of promotions unless you left the company and returned.

Pros

-New CEO (Paul Buccieri) seems to be making a real difference and has change the work environment for the better. He admits there were problems within with prior leadership and is working diligently and transparently to make things better. Things are looking up for the first time in a while. -Good benefits if you're luck enough to be a staff employee -Lots of PTO

Cons

Management is horrible at promoting people. For the most part, only those who are in the department click are promoted, even if they are not remotely qualified for a promotion. Very common to promote people on all levels of the company who have not been around for long, even if they have not contributed much to the company. The distribution of work is very uneven. Some people work very long hours and need help to manage the volume while others sit around most days socializing because they don't have enough work to do. People are eager to work, but are often not given the opportunity. Very difficult for vertical movement and long term growth. The company struggles to recognize those who are talented and can have a real impact.
