Pros

Can easily move up through the ranks and take on new challenges, good opportunity for development if you're early career. Can work from anywhere, flexible scheduling. Compensation decent if you live somewhere outside of a large city. Work-life balance amazing. Lots of smart pleasant colleagues, lots of expertise in our fields.

Cons

Internal politics are a disaster and are highly personality driven. Roughly yearly restructures and need to appeal to different people. Low salary if you live in a major US/UK/EU city. Some colleagues are annoying. Little feedback from your manager about how to improve in your role.

Pros

(I can only speak for the project I’m on) - Flexible hours - Quick to assist with requests for off time - Remote work - Little to no micromanaging - Can fall out for being sick as needed - Pay is about normal for entry level minimum wage jobs but the plus here is that you save on gas - You get health insurance at full time I can’t speak on how good or bad it is though.

Cons

- No PTO - Equipment not provided (I find this is 50/50 for remote jobs) - There seems to be quite a bit of competition for job postings within the company so you may or may not be sitting in one spot for some time.

Pros

Flexibility, generous PTO for full-time employees, teams are generally respectful of PTO and look out for each other, camaraderie on the social team is high and people genuinely get along, which has a very positive impact on the clients as well. A lot of genuinely good people work here and care about the work and each other.

Cons

Raises and promotions move painfully slow, and pay is not accurate based on the distribution of the actual client work. Social team spends just as much time cleaning up the messes of other departments as they do actually working on their projects, but don't have anything close to the salaries of the people making the messes in the first place, and it feels like very little movement happens whenever serious concerns are raised.
