Pros

Keg? Jeans? They try to keep up with the "cool" tech vibe but I honestly can't think of too many upsides to this company.

Cons

"Here today, gone tomorrow," should be the Smarsh company motto. I worked there for about 9 months (left of my own accord) and watched upper management be wiped clean twice. Unless you were dating one of the Marsh family members or were an old college buddy, you weren't safe. I saw people be fired for asking for a well deserved raise because it "raised scrutiny." I saw tenured employees who were performing be fired overnight for no good reason. Don't believe any of the good reviews on here, as we were pushed to contribute to balance out the negative reviews. If you have any other employment options on the table, take them. This company is absolutely horrible.

Not a good place to work

Pros

A lot of good people here. Products are interesting. Business challenges are interesting as well.

Cons

The company's culture is rapidly declining. Leadership only seems to care about company profits, not about employee well-being. Company is being gutted to prepare it for sale in a few years. Huge waves of layoffs, some with no warning. People who get cut aren't being replaced, so there's too much work and too few people. Cost of living here is soaring, but our bonuses are getting cut, and even small raises are hard to earn. They're trying to avoid promotions, too. In general, they don't seem to want to pay people what they deserve. And now there's a mandatory return to office to help us build culture. But culture isn't about being in the office together. It's about how you treat people. And being forced into the office with leaders who don't care about you and don't treat you fairly doesn't "build culture". It just makes you even less happy with your job. Maybe this is a good company to have stock. But it's definitely not a good place to work.
