Pros

There are good, hard-working people on the team. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Senior leadership does not give its employees the resources they need to be successful. Every business decision must pass through the same few people creating impassable bottle necks. Stifling micro management style. Enormous amounts of wasteful internal meetings. More unhappy clients that satisfied ones because no one can get anything done. There is a revolving door of leadership because no one can get along with the CEO and other c-level execs. Complete lack of company culture. Career progression is non-existent. I didn't see one person on my team or adjacent teams be promoted the entire time I was with the company. Pay raises were not given to anyone I knew of as well. The only people promoted were senior leadership that were already in the c-suite in group. The pay is well below industry standard. Commission is impossible to keep track of and they are very unlikely to pay on time. Benefits are below average as well. Everything said in the comments below is true about cutting pay by 20%, this included employees they had hired only a few months prior to the cut. Incredibly deceitful behavior by leadership. Management asked employees to leave positive reviews here because the low score was negatively affected recruiting, so many of the positive reviews are from that initiative. There are many reasons why turnover is so significantly higher than industry standard. I would not recommend working at this company.

Pros

The starting and base compensation is exceptionally competitive and easily the biggest draw to the company.

Cons

Immense Turnover Rate: There is a massive and noticeable revolving door here. Employee turnover is incredibly high across teams, which severely impacts day-to-day operations and team continuity. Outdated Technology & Vision: The company relies heavily on old technology and lacks a modern, forward-thinking vision. Innovation is minimal, making it difficult to progress or feel like you are building future-proof skills. Unhappy Clients: Due to operational gaps and outdated systems, client satisfaction is low. You will likely spend a lot of time managing frustrated customers and dealing with the fallout of unmet expectations. Unethical Executive Management: Leadership actions and decisions often cross into unethical territory. There is a distinct lack of transparency, integrity, and trust from the executive level down, which heavily damages company morale.
