Pros

Great opportunity for 1) college grads to start their career and 2) those changing careers; learning SQL on the job, data analytics, and software; Peer to Peer recognition program; some flexibility offered (working from home) -- depends on who your manager is; 9a-5p schedule M-F; touch base meetings with managers to track progress; ability to learn multiple perspectives working with other colleagues on projects; stock option; 401(k) matching; 15 days PTO to start; and other great benefits.

Cons

Managers at times can be immature, inexperienced, and very clique; many employees are promoted internally (which can be good), but then hardly any managerial training is offered to make them better managers; Epsilon, in a company wide meeting, made it very clear that promotions aren't merit based -- but based on years of experience. It is also well known that Epsilon pays at rates that are below market value in the Boston area. Promotion cycles are too long.
