Leadership Leaving in Droves

Pros

You can connect with contractors who might offer better opportunities.

Cons

Leadership has been steadily leaving because the company is way behind on technology. They sloppily ramped up AI marketing after doing multiple rounds of layoffs, and their AI content is dated and unfinished. Worse, they laid off several experts in the AI/ML field.

Flexible Place To Work. Slow Professional Growth.

Pros

General Assembly is a great place to work where you can be proud of the work and impact you have on the org and clients. If you get out of your workaholic mode, you can take advantage of the flexible PTO and the culture of understanding where you are expected to put forth 100% but also take time for yourself and your family. No one abuses that and there is trust in folks getting their work done and supporting one another.

Cons

If you are ok with staying in one role for a long time, this is your spot. I think that due to the pandemic and the economy, there is limited mobility. However, you can try to work or use skills on other teams to diversify your professional portfolio if possible. But raises and bonuses fall short.
