      Pros

      Good social environment - felt very well connected with most colleagues, even if I didn't come across them through work. Everyone is very approachable (even devs!) right up to CEO. Good pay Good bonuses, though replaced with equity release scheme, now completed, which turned out better - I never dreamt it would pay out.

      Cons

      No structured training or development Appraisals felt like box ticking exercises Difficult to get new methodologies and thinking considered or accepted Not truly global, far too US centric, which goes against their ambition of breaking into new markets. For the time I was employed at DDS, now Mediaocean, I've seen a great number of changes. DDS needed a shakeup, which came in the form of a merger with MediaBank. Having settled into a good, exciting company to work for, they've now been acquired by Vista Equity Partners. What that will bring only time will tell.

      We work hard to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to mix with colleagues both socially and professionally so it’s good to know that is reaping benefits. Obviously disappointed that the appraisals felt like box ticking. This can be down to different management styles and sounds like some training would be in order.Thank you for the feedback.

      Pros

      The New York location is truly great. Near all food and shopping, easy commute from NJ/Path. The long term veterans of the older companies pre-merger are good technologists and good people. For the technologist, this is an old mainframe shop-- you'll see fairly rare stuff here! The CEO is very good.

      Cons

      The original owners retired. The first set of new owners wanted nothing more than an IPO. When the revenue numbers did not support it, they bailed fast. The current owners are a full-on "Bob and bob" cast. They are basically going to squeeze as much as they can out of cost. I have never seen a micromanagement situation as bad as what was going on here.
