Pros

If you have the right friends you can grow at fast pace.

Cons

It used to be a nice place to be but things started changing towards the end of 2021. There is no clear business plan and absolutely no accountability. Things have not been good for more than 2 years now and you don't see any changes in the leadership, Even during layoffs the leadership (Director and above) were hardly touched. After going through 2+ years of "growing pains" the firm is smaller than what it was 2 years ago and the only people held accountable were the consultants who couldn't be staffed or didn't have enough tenure.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
