Pros

Monthly Team builder activities. Free coffee and prison food on Tuesdays. Happy hours on Fridays.

Cons

Intense pressure to perform with little advisement. You have a one week crash course into this company/role and you either sink or swim. They will only give to attention if you're a top performer. You're not provided all the tools to succeed. No plan in place for people struggling. If you contact management, depending who you go to they will give you a quick 5 min tip or just never follow up with you. They promote young employees that have no clue how to lead. All about numbers. Job is halfway luck no mater how much you put into it. Absolutely no consideration is given if you don't meet the numbers or your calls get canceled out of your control. You are just a number here. They hire ten people a week to replace you.

Pros

Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

Cons

Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

Pros

Good colleagues, arguably a good job post college (for like a year MAX)

Cons

I cannot stress enough how terrible this company is. Spent 5 years there, and watched it go further downhill every year. You leave with only soft skills (if that), and 0 actual industry knowledge. Seriously, you leave only knowing a bunch of Hocus Pocus. I am really surprised this company hasn't been bought yet. Or merged. On my team alone, we lost 7 out of our 9 managers since January... either due to layoffs or them quitting. Pay is low. There are no bonuses and it's very difficult to get a raise. 90k in NYC is poverty. There are bright people that come in with Masters, and PhDs, and MBAs -- handing them 90k is insulting.
