Pros

The employees are really good but not the leadership. Taco Tuesday are great ! Some great clients

Cons

Every employee is just a number of the leadership. What's your billing percent? They literally see how many hours of work did each employee do every week. There is no room for your growth. It's all about doing the same work again again. There is so much internal politics which is crazy . I have worked at places before but it's never been so crazy. Undeserving people are always given shout outs but the people who are actually doing all the work are never given any Even if we give them a benefit of the doubt about it being an agency, no one can explain that almost 50% of the employees have either left or were let go in the past 1 year. This brings in so much instability. I was promised so many things while I was negotiating before the start but none of them were actually met.

Time for leadership to look in the mirror.

Pros

Flexible schedule (workload permitting), amazing people, cool office space and for the most part genuinely nice people in leadership roles (just not great leaders).

Cons

There are a few bad apples in leadership and because they are all buddies nothing was going to change. Back-stabbing and gossip was the norm and it seemed those who participated in it were the people that were constantly praised and rewarded.
