Pros

The people are generally nice and there is some remote flexibility, depending on the team

Cons

Feels unorganized and floundering a bit, still just struggling to find their footing and position themselves given market changes. A lot of long term employees have been promoted based on tenure into roles they do not have the right skills for. Growing your employees is important, but at times it feels like the company’s success is limited by lack of outside expertise and leadership.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
