Pros

People here are really great; I think that a lot of hard working and intelligent people work here. Base salary isn't great, but if you're an average performer you can expect to add 10% to your salary through bonus. Bonuses only go up as seniority and your performance increase. Overall, senior management is impressive in terms of their vision and they've executed- growth has been outstanding. That means more senior positions open up very often.

Cons

After 9 months, the learning curve slows down, and you don't necessarily learn as much after that time. I understand they're trying to fix this issue, but not sure if that will be successful.

Pros

Good entry-level opportunity with exposure to fast-paced, client-facing work. The company hires driven, sociable individuals and can be a strong starting point for building communication, prioritization, and execution skills in a high-performance environment.

Cons

High turnover and inconsistent management quality significantly impact the employee experience. Success is heavily dependent on your team lead and manager, with limited recourse if you’re placed under ineffective leadership. In my experience, poor communication, lack of emotional intelligence, and unclear expectations from management made it difficult to succeed and negatively affected day-to-day productivity. Internal processes around performance management and PTO lacked transparency. I was placed on a PIP and terminated shortly after (within a week) in a way that felt abrupt and not aligned with prior communication, which was initially framed as a discussion around pending PTO. There were also delays in PTO approvals, and I experienced issues with compensation adjustments following a promotion that required follow-up to resolve.
