Pros

They sell only local projects which means you virtually never have to travel. They emphasize work life balance which allows you to limit your hours to 40-45 per week if you want. Entrepreneurial culture--if you have a good idea, they will back you. You can also choose to be on the Hourly rather than salary plan which means you'll get paid for every hour you work (or you can purposely lower your hours below 40/week and it's all good).

Cons

As with most consulting company, you work at the client site so it's very difficult to project what part of town you'll be working in.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
