Pros

The company is growing and evolving the right way. Great people, many who have been there for years, others who joined recently. Strong culture. New leadership team, including new CEO who partners with President to promote a strong vision for C2 and its employees. Some negative reviews are simply false. The previous review by a former disgruntled recruiter ignored everything C2 and its founder did for them...including paid month-long trips to visit family overseas, work-from-home arrangements when loved ones became sick, five-figure raises on top of six-figure salaries. C2 sacrifices for its employees, and yes, it expects some respect and hard work in return. Often times employees take advantage of C2 and are quick to blame the high standards promoted by the founder, a woman who literally built the company by herself over 25 years.

Cons

Every department can benefit from better communication and stronger interpersonal skills. This is a blue chip initiative for C2 in 2019.

Pros

I interned at C2 last summer and the internship gave me exposure to both operational and creative sides of the business. I started in payroll and finance, which helped me understand how detailed and compliance-focused the company is. Later, I transitioned into marketing and even got to contribute ideas and input on the new website design. It was really rewarding to see suggestions I made actually implemented. I felt like part of the team, not just an observer. The experience gave me practical skills and confidence that helped me secure other positions afterward. C2 does a great job preparing interns for the real world and a lot of the things I learned last summer I am know using in my new role.

Cons

There’s a learning curve with systems and processes, especially in payroll/finance.

Pros

I came into C2 with a strong HR foundation, but I learned more in five years here than I expected. The environment is fast-paced and client-focused, so you quickly build problem-solving, compliance, and communication skills. There’s always room to grow and learn something new. No two days are the same. You’re trusted with real responsibility, which helps you develop quickly. The best part was the team, incredibly supportive, collaborative, and always willing to jump in to help. That made even the busiest days enjoyable.

Cons

Workloads can get heavy during peak times, so strong organization skills are a must.
