Pros

- I had a great manager

Cons

- Laid off the entire business strategy new hire cohort after 5 months - The managers on my project were terrible, barely focused on my role on the project, didn’t give me any work and when I tried to be proactive about looking for tasks, reprimanded me for it but also reprimanded me if they felt I wasn’t being proactive enough, and were generally rude

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
