Pros

- People are nice and there are some very intelligent people in the business

Cons

- Work-life balance is a big issue here. While the whole industry suffers from this (as is agency life), MetrixLab seems to overwork and underappreciate a large number of their staff . 11pm internal emails and weekend working is the norm. - Training and development is promised but often in the form of there generic/dry training videos and little on-the-job training - Seniors seem to take credit when jobs go right and are extremely quick to throw juniors under the bus when they go wrong - Very little exposure to clients in comparison to other agencies. If you like data tables and hate interacting and actually solving clients problems, this might be the place for you - Big sink or swim mentalities
