Pros

Everyone I worked with was very passionate about their role, had a lot of energy to learn and to grow, and client deliverables became more interesting over time. All employees were happy to help each other out in all aspects of the job, which made working in teams a great experience.

Cons

Management is an absolute mess, they are known for changing their minds about their decisions in split seconds, and they do not manage but only attempt to put out the multiple fires that occur every day. They have chosen to allow work quality to decrease, and to put more burden on their remaining employees, in an attempt to save any money they can. This is definitely not the same company where I started working years ago, things have changed for the worse.

Pros

There are still many talented and hardworking employees there.

Cons

Constant restructuring, layoffs, and uncertainty. Pride themselves on objective unbiased reporting, yet now they want to enter into prediction markets. 25% layoff right before Q1 ended. Leadership executed a reverse stock split that heavily eroded shareholder value, only for the stock to continue falling and the company to be delisted from the NYSE shortly thereafter.
