Pros

Good people, great views at the new office, lots of smart people and you are able to wear different hats in the organization (as long as you crush your actual job's numbers)

Cons

Complete disconnect between what the managers in the organization purport the values to be and how managers act. For example, the organization will say they don't care about inputs or FaceTime in the office. Yet managers will say things if you leave at 6-6:45 consistently, even if you are meeting the expectations laid out for you. Some of the worst training I've ever experienced. You're expected to work a lot of hours without competitive compensation. Bonus structure sucks and is constantly changing, what you're compensated for in your bonus you have little to no control over those outcomes. If you consistently meet the targets they'll just raise them and they expect you to spend a lot of your personal time doing work. Even when you're on vacation you're expected to be checking in a couple times a day Worst number of holidays I've seen at any company, ever. Pretty much everyone is doing the job, at minimum, two people should be doing. Dress code is not as relaxed as they say it is. They also lied about unlimited paid vacation and sick days. Job you end up doing might not be the one you thought you were interviewing for. Will ask you to compromise what's best for your client simply to save a paying client. With almost no consideration of the damage to the axial brand or your personal reputation.
