Pros

The company is really small, so you can get to know everyone easily. Some of the clients are bigger industry names. There might still be some really smart and talented employees, but most of them have left at this point.

Cons

This company has been slowly strangled and hallowed out from the inside due to extremely heavy operational leadership command and control methods. You will not grow here, your career will be slowly choked out. There is no win-win for the company and all employees. Winning is for clients, the company, and the C-Suite only.

Pros

The culture is genuinely caring and supportive. People here truly look out for one another and are passionate about what they do. Creative collaboration thrives across every department; no matter your role, great ideas are welcomed and valued. The leadership team checks in with employees, actively listens to feedback, and makes thoughtful changes when needed.

Cons

At times, resources can feel stretched given the fast pace and volume of work. The company recently went through layoffs, which was difficult for everyone involved.
