Pros

Fast and easy interview process.

Cons

No raises (ever). If you want a pay increase it will only be through a promotion. INCREDIBLY poor benefits. How does ZERO time off your first year of employeement sound? Or 1 week of PTO after working there a year? This is truly a company that does not put any value in their employees. As if this wasn't enough, the "bullying" culture runs rampant throughout every part of this organization. From the CEO (who threatened to take up an employee issue "out in the parking lot"), to the uneducated managers that gossip and pit people against each other. No matter what the job offer is from this company RUNNNNN.

Pros

Great team environment with supportive coworkers who are always willing to help and collaborate. Working with a variety of clients provides valuable networking opportunities and exposure to different industries, making it a great place to build professional relationships and expand your experience.

Cons

Leadership has declined significantly compared to previous management. A major concern is the lack of trust shown toward employees, which has led to an environment where people feel micromanaged rather than empowered to do their jobs effectively. Previous leadership encouraged open communication, listened to employee feedback, and fostered a culture of mutual respect and accountability. In contrast, employee concerns and suggestions are often not acknowledged or acted upon, leaving many feeling unheard and undervalued. There is a noticeable lack of meaningful listening and engagement from management, which has contributed to low morale and a growing disconnect between leadership and staff. The overall work environment has become increasingly negative, with a culture that does not consistently promote trust, collaboration, or professional growth. Additionally, there have been instances of inappropriate jokes and comments that create discomfort among employees, further contributing to a workplace culture that can feel unprofessional, unwelcoming, and unsupportive.
