Is this your company?

Good starting place, but mobility feels limited. - Analyst Edge by Ascential Employee Review

Pros

Edge was committed to hiring people who may not have a tech background. I think this made for an interesting and dynamic team. There remained a start-up like feel to the company even though it was past that phase. Company was generous with time off and holidays. I was allowed to move to part-time to accommodate my schedule. Supervisor met with me every two weeks for a one-on-one. Pay was fair.

Cons

Toxic "diversity" culture where certain demographic groups were given priority during a part of the hiring process. Company prides itself on "no-silos" but in reality there was minimal communication between business divisions from my position's perspective. Managers and supervisors were often quite awful. They frequently did the absolute minimum to just keep things above water on the team. There was mostly no training or skills enrichment offered to me -- it felt like a dead end job. I would say the managers mostly only narrowly care about advancing their own careers and will do so at the expense of their employees. Do not expect much from your supervisors because they simply don't appear to care.

Pros

I’ve been at Edge for over two years now and I really like working here. I think my team is full of great people and I love the opportunities I have to pursue different kinds of projects with some of the worlds largest brands. Would recommend

Cons

Typical growing pains for a brand whose parent company is going through M&A and rebranding

They want through some layoffs when they were preparing to be sold.
