Pros

- Large clients give you exposure to some industry leaders - A lot of responsibility & expectation - Multiple satellite offices (hope you like forced return to office) - Splashy perks (barista, swag, snacks etc.) - Access to large partner network

Cons

- Just look at the rating trends from the past 2 years. Down and to the right. - Everything you'll read in those reviews are true, and then some. - Insane growth in 2020 created a top heavy, corporate kingdom culture. Unfortunately everyone who has power to change this lives at the top of the castle. - Minimal managerial channels to communicate feedback to the top. Realistically, no one feels comfortable bringing up any of this feedback as it would be perceived as "rocking the boat". - Across client teams its all too common to have unrealistic goals set, with no reasonable plans to achieve them.

Pros

Excellent co-workers!! Decent perks, especially for parents Some ability to WFH 4 weeks PTO (but 0 sick pay) Some additional random days off Big emphasis on DEI

Cons

Lower than average pay No sick leave Volatile policies, always confusing as to what has changed for the year Chronically understaffed in engineering Zero pay transparency. Managers do not know nor do they have much influence on their teams' pay HR polices WFH by tracking employees, instead of trusting managers to handle their team *** Bonuses are announced (and earned) in December and paid out at 20% in December and 80% in April, due to when clients pay PMG. If you are not employed as of April, you DO NOT get the remaining 80% even though you earned the bonus for work in the prior year. While it's unclear whether this is illegal, it's certainly unethical, especially for a company that touts one of its values as "Do the Right Thing" For comparison sake, this is like working a week, and your employer not having the wages to pay you at the end of the week, and thus promising to pay you in a month's time. You quit a week later, and then your employer reneges on the deal because you are "no longer employed there" ***

Pros

Exposure to well-known brands creates learning experiences. Company trips. Nice and talented coworkers.

Cons

You will get shiny gifts and have a lot of events that are exciting for the first couple months. However, you will quickly realize that they are an attempt by the company to manufacture complacency and an artificial culture while you are being overworked and underpaid at the same time. Unfortunately, you cannot effectively have a compensation conversation with anyone, because your bosses do not know your compensation and the HR department that does know, completely turns over every few months. I wouldn’t expect the company to shift priorities since these perks allow them to attract bright-eyed college grads that they can exploit for a year or two until they burn out and look elsewhere.
