Pros

This is exclusively a fresh out of college resume-builder job. Try to get through a year, two years max. It won't get better.

Cons

Management gets more cruel the higher you go up. If you're on your way up, you'll be expected to do the same. Directors of Partner Success in ALR tell their teams to bully other teams to get their way. This message comes from the very top of ALR (she's heard this for years and pretends to be surprised every time). They're never going to change anything. Any sort of "quick pulse" survey is not anonymous (they are lying when they say it is). They track who said what, discuss it in meetings, and focus their efforts on retaliation rather than making improvements. You're never going to be properly compensated. Promotions come with very little pay increase. If you ask about pay increases, they will tell you they're in the middle of a "market salary review." In a couple of months, they will announce that it is complete, won't share specifics, and say "we/you are in line with the median pay for this role." HR will not help you. You'll find that the thing you complained/raised concerns about was actually your fault, and you will soon find yourself on a PIP (performance improvement plan). If you're on a PIP, start looking for a job immediately. They want you out, and your PIP will be vague and unmeasurable to ensure they find a reason. If you manage to get off of one, there is no hope for future advancement. You'll hear a lot about how "every job is like this," and "you have it good." It's not and you don't. Other companies are not like this; EAB is a notably bad place to work. Everyone appears to be very friendly, but you can't trust anyone. Good luck, keep your head down, and your resume up to date.

Pros

Everything seems flexible in the beginning. There's a good amount of PTO and a good salary. I was hired straight out of college and was initially very excited. I felt I learned a lot, although very demanding.

Cons

My team didn't always feel very cohesive. There was a bit of tension between managers and the engineers. My interviewer forgot about me during one of my initial screenings and a totally different person showed up in the last 5 minutes after I had already waited 25 minutes. I was told that I'd be working in the offices in Birmingham, and then once I was hired, I was told I'd be working somewhere completely different, which messed with the plans I had made and the time I spent trying to relocate. I ended up getting fired after I missed three consecutive days, but hear me out, I told my manager I was having trouble traveling back home after Thanksgiving in the morning of the second day and that I'd need to use some PTO (this is the last text I sent him and he never reached out to me again). My family had a work emergency and they weren't able to drive me back home right away. My manager knew that my car had been totaled the week before, and I thought everything would be fine. Took the most expensive Lyft ride of my life and got home on the afternoon of the third day and tried to sign in, but I was already locked out. When I spoke with HR, they only seemed concerned about me returning my work laptop. My manager never reached out to me afterwards. I've had a lot of trouble finding a job since, and I had to break the lease on the apartment I had and it's still affecting me financially. Overall, very unfortunate. I loved my team and genuinely wanted to leave an impact. Some have even agreed to be references, but I think taking this job was a big mistake and has made my life harder in the long run. I accept my responsibility in how things turned out too. It could have been easily avoided. I just didn't know better at the time.
