Pros

Unique and Great Culture. This is truly a place where you can create your own career - nobody will put you in a box. If you can make a business case for something, you'll get the green light to drive results. I haven't worked at another company where you can take your career in any direction that you choose. If you produce results the sky is the limit. Very solid financial results quarter over quarter, year over year.

Cons

Benefits are average at best, probably sub par if I'm being honest. The 401(k) match and ESPP are generous but the medical benefits are expensive. The options are good but the cost to the employee is far too high.

Pros

Great benefits. Medical, 401k and lots of support if you need time off

Cons

My office got acquired and we got blacked out on raises our first year with them. We had people quit and the workload just got split up between everyone. They didn’t hire anyone to replace these people. No compensation for taking on more work. I have personally asked for a pay increase. I have gotten a couple different responses, one that they are waiting for their budget and that corporate has to approve it. This has been going on for 3months. They talk about being the most ethical company but when they come to their staff it’s more work for less pay. Our IT guys runs so thin and hasn’t gotten a pay raise in 4 years. So far I am not impressed with how they manage everyone.

Pros

Location is beautiful some interesting clients/accounts many employees are quality people (outside management) fruits and snacks always available

Cons

Management is in over their head. Most positions have been filled out of necessity not because these individuals know what they're doing. Hire leadership that knows how to manage people, not accounts. Lots of "listening" to problems and then sweeping them under the rug. Service colleagues are disposable and management only responds to producers. Get ready to work 1 1/2 positions plus whatever producers dont feel like doing. The turnover is relentless and the people that are loyal and stay get taken advantage of. No heads up or conversations, new accounts in the morning when you log in. fun! Worst part is because of being understaffed and mismanaged, the solutions are many times unethical or at the very least questionable. Tons of snacks, free lunches and perks but its so you forget what work/life balance means and look over the serious issues at this location.
