Pros

Some really cool people to work with

Cons

The entire company is a founder worshipping cult The founder is manipulative, vindictive, immature and jealous of people who are more knowledgeable than he is. Leadership are incompetent strategists with no idea about what it takes to run a company professionally. A privileged Swiss group of people born with a silver spoon in their mouthes, they are comfortable with corruption and grifting while never facing consequences. They think their corruption and abuses would not be called out in the US but are finding the hard way that their approach fails miserably at this side of the Pond. They insist on hiring highly accomplished people in senior positions and then proceed to ignore their advice and expertise. More dangerously, they hire people in junior positions who are easy prey to grooming and brainwashing due to their heartbreaking personal stories. This is exactly what cults do. The founder, meanwhile, has sexual relationships with other members of the company who hold privileged positions.

Pros

* Truly supportive, collaborative team - people are humble, smart and always willing to help. * Culture that feels genuine: trust, flexibility, ownership, and a "people and client first" mindset * Exceptional benefits and work-life balance compared to most consulting firms * Leadership is accessible, transparent, and willing to make tough decisions when needed * CEO Frederic Brunner is inspiring - his passion for helping clients and building something meaningful makes you proud to work here * Global environment with colleagues across the US and Europe, creating great exposure and learning * Opportunities to step up, take ownership, and grow quickly * Strong focus on client value and doing the right thing

Cons

* Fast-paced environment may not be for everyone * Because the company is entrepreneurial, processes and structures evolve often * You need to be comfortable with change and self-management Bottom line: Genioo isn't perfect - no company is - but I feel genuinely proud to work here. The people, culture, leadership, and benefits make this a truly special place.
