Great Atmosphere: The vibes here are genuinely chill. People: My colleagues are supportive and easy to get along with. Time Off: We get generous holidays and work-life balance.

Cons

The Market: The broader market is struggling, which creates some uncertainty. Pay: The salary is on the lower side and hasn't kept up with the cost of living.

Pros

Decent pay and good benefits.

Cons

- Clients are prioritized way over employees. - Employees are seen as expendable. - High-performing employees were fired for no cause being told their positions were eliminated, only for those positions to be retitled and rehired immediately thereafter. - Limited to no opportunities for advancement. - Management prefers to hire from outside rather than promote from within. - Experienced blatant retaliation by senior management after filing HR complaint. When HR was notified, they did nothing about it.
