Pros

You can work from home

Cons

I have worked at agencies for over 10 years -- Code and Theory is by far the worst experience in my career. The micromanagement, chaos, and extreme toxic culture caused by senior leadership makes it very difficult to work here.

Code and Theory Response

Hi, thank you for your note. I am glad you enjoy our remote first environment. I am sorry to hear that you are not having a positive experience. It looks like you are still here and I would encourage you to come find me or someone on my team so that we can understand what toxic behavior you have experienced. We want to hear more as that is the only way we can better understand your experience and create change or give feedback if necessary. Thank you.
