Pros

I used to believe at the very least this was a decent place for an average performer to come in and develop a skill set. However, recent events have changed that. Urban Science has started to sue low level employees that leave the company to whoever they deem a competitor, this includes people they let go themselves. What was left of moral at this company had completely vanished in the last week.

Cons

Too many to list. Urban Science essentially pays employees to give good employee feedback surveys, which I scratch my head at what benefit that does besides let leadership tell the owner everyone is happy. The company is 100% focused on current year profitability and bottom line, which begs that leadership is either incompetent, maximizing net income for higher valuation when the company is sold in the coming years, or both.

Pros

With the exception of some teams, company culture is great. Opportunity to work on some cool stuff

Cons

Super strict on in office attendance and recently culture has taken a hit because of it. Also compensation and career progression aren’t very good past year 1.
