Pros
Competitive pay and that’s it.
Cons
Where can I start? This agency expects ALL of your time. I had to recently request a WEEKEND off because of a medical meeting where other colleagues could have easily filled in. Your managers will text/call you at all hours of the day, when you’re on “vacation,” if you’re at a family event or wedding. They have no respect for work/life balance. They claim to have unlimited PTO but in reality it’s really two weeks. TWO WEEKS. Less than the industry standard. People are so brain washed who work here they really believe in the “grind hard” mentality. Managers are verbally abusive. I’ve witnessed junior staff emailing teams at 4pm saying “sorry I’ll be offline for the next ten minutes to take lunch.” The culture is toxic as it is run by a former top 4 consulting firm tech bro who likes to casually throw around f-bombs during town halls to seem relevant. Your work will be put under multiple microscopes. Even as a senior leader I am forced to have my boss review replies to my client. The founder is money obsessed and encourages a “dollar first” approach to everything. Everyone is expected to be 100% billable. The onboarding process is atrocious and if you don’t know something you’re called out. I can’t wait to find my next role.
