Pros

- Smart, cool people - Fast growth Trajectory - A list clients like Salesforce, McKesson, Gap, Apple, PG&E, Escada, Athleta, Stuart Weitzman, Genentech and more - Work/Life balance

Cons

- Really terrible PTO - basically you can;t get sick or you won;t get vacation - Some senior leaders lack experience in the "real world" and have only ever done consulting. This can lead to poor management of the actual company, particularly in forecasting, resource management and marketing.

Pros

people are very kind and its a great network to then have for life

Cons

I had 5 managers in 4 years, 3 of which promised me a promotion which I never got I was strung along in a seperate global team for a year and a half and then when I finally was moved to that group they fired 80% of us it's now an up or out company and people are leaving faster than business is coming in, that's been happening for 2 yrs my mental health was so bad i had two burnouts in a single year my last manager emotionally abused me and made me feel like i was a terrible person. I left believing that was why I was fired until i chatted with another former employee of this manager work life balance WAS a thing and in the last two years it's now that consultants are also responsible for selling, travel is a non-negotiable but expectations for travel are not transparent and can impact your yearly review, straight up not enough work and then senior management will make you feel bad for it
