Great place to work and grow

Pros

-Opportunities for growth if you're a high performer. Many people here have grown from ICs to managers over the course of their tenure. -For a company that's been around so long, they aren't stuck in their ways. Most teams are open to process changes in the effort of improving how we work. -Great work/life balance, people take their work seriously but are understanding that work isn't everything. Good PTO plan and you're encouraged to actually use all of your days each year. -Company is doing well and business/revenue is growing a lot year over year.

Cons

-Leadership is pushing return to office for some teams but not others. Certain teams like engineering are very remote-friendly with folks around the world, and other teams are pretty much NYC-only. I think leadership should be better about consistency across the org and be realistic that most people don't need to come into the office 1-2 days a week to work efficiently with their team.

Mismanaged company with a backstabbing HR department

Pros

I've met a few people here that I became friends with. We always have a good time laughing at some of the bizarre/unprofitable business decisions made by the CEO/founding family. Usually one of us in the conversation will say "I don't think they learned that at Harvard" ... LOL.

Cons

Poorly run company. Management by mistakes. Chief People Officer talks very badly about people both in front of their face and behind their back.
