      Culture and people are great, upper management not so much

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * lgbtq+ friendly * Day to day work and people are generally great to work with and hang out with * In office culture is awesome really light friendly atmosphere, plenty of events to get involved and meet people.

      Cons

      * Took a contract to hire position, when they brought me on full time offered a salary that was 25-40% less than my original contract salary * When you are not on a client project direction and guidelines are very amorphous * After not having client work for several months (market conditions are tough, I get it), received a PIP with factually inaccurate claims. I brought this up to my manager, it went nowhere and I was let go a few months later without being given any chances to defend myself or have any conversations with upper management who was making decisions behind closed doors and not at all transparent and never bothered to talk to me or my coworkers directly. * Manager cancelled more than 5 weekly 1 on 1's during this period, have a feeling I may have been thrown under the bus * 2 weeks severance
