      Horrible place to work

      Pros

      Fun team events. Opportunity to travel and meet employees from other offices.

      Cons

      Consistently changing roles. Management favours those they have strong relationships with, and does not care about others success. Management promotes those who they favour. Office environment feels like a children's playground as it is open concept with music playing. Very unprofessional management as employees who are not ready to manage others are promoted based on high sales, and do not know how to manage people.

      Pros

      Great Software, awesome group of coworkers that came in with me

      Cons

      very cult like sexual harassment from both male and female managers in Boston Unsafe after work drinking no time to tweak software or prospect for new clients, all of that had to be done at nights and on weekends Bad leadership, just cause you sell a lot, doesn't mean you can manage other

      Get Ready For Burnout

      Pros

      - Hybrid or completely WFH model - PTO is generous and managers are pretty relaxed with you taking it - Packages/benefits to make up for low compensation - Great first job or filler for a year or two - Type of work is not tedious, life threatening or the end of the world - Recent push for DEI in the workplace - The majority of clients are pleasant - Tech setup is supplied for you regardless of WFH or hybrid

      Cons

      - Compensation is NOT competitive unless you are in sales or customer success - Growth is slow to nonexistent - Since going public there is red tape everywhere - Little to no internal onboarding - Timezones are not honored so be prepared to mess up your sleep schedule - Workload to compensation ratio is unfair - No merit, inflation or yearly bonus structure. Might be different for specific teams, but no overall policy - Turnover of longtime employees is becoming more common - Clients are a wide range of teaching how to use a computer to rude geniuses - Hub offices are loud, like club level loud - Got stuck in an smaller office? No culture at all and they look like call centers.
