Pros

The people - expert, professional, friendly, helpful The clients - impactful industries

Cons

Explosive growth led to the first layoffs in 20 years of business. I was caught up in that, I don't know how much my local leadership had a say in who's "position was eliminated." For a "people first", "fiercely human" culture, it was a very dispassionate process.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
