Pros

The company is filled with kind & helpful people for the most part. The culture is also good. Most people are good at their jobs. The benefits are solid. There are much, much worse places to work.

Cons

It often feels like Red Ventures has no real long-term plan or vision for any of their properties. They are unbelievably reactionary and pivot constantly (and not in a positive, "We're willing to adapt!" kind-of-way). Leadership at the vertical level is a revolving door of people, and every six months, verticals are restructured/reorganized to suit the latest "vision". It becomes exhausting because it feels like true progress is rarely ever made. If this was a publicly-traded company, Ric Elias would have been removed as CEO long ago.

Pros

RV offers many employee resources groups. My colleagues were smart, solid, caring people.

Cons

Leaders talk a lot about caring for employees and using the company to improve the world. But they are actually ruthless and are willing to sacrifice everything for the promise of more money. They have no integrity.
