Pros

The people are dedicated and talented they want to add value to the business and do right by our customers. CEO is inspiring

Cons

Leadership is lacking and seem to be paralyzed. We hear Julio say good stuff but it does not seem to be carried through outside the quarterly meetings. We advise clients on how to best manage their talent, and yet we don't seem to follow that advice ourselves. Technology (especially supporting the back office) is outdated.

Pros

Remote flexibility, which is nice.

Cons

You will not get a raise and if you do, it'll be 1%. Managers will not help you with escalating issues, you're on your own. It'll be blamed on you. You'll work so much overtime you won't have a social life.
