Pros

- flexible WFH policy - good people who care about the quality of their work - cool brands and projects

Cons

- pay is lower than regional average - extremely high work pressure - lots of people burning out, but company does nothing to change it. management does the bare minimum that it is legally required of them when you have a burn out, even as a long term employee - management doesn't listen to feedback (or they do, but never act on it) - little to no structure in way of working across project teams, even within departments - everyone is too busy to improve on the status quo, except for upper management who seem to reorganize the company every 3 years to no real improvements - company spending too much money buying up other companies yet still has constant raise/hiring freezes (except for the lucky few who are deemed worthy of one) - company constantly buying new companies and having no realistic plan on integrating them with MediaMonks - 100% focus on company growth and 0% on people - nepotism

Pros

People are fantastic and open to collaboration and learning about what others do. Remote work was great too.

Cons

management is non-existent. they get paid but they dont do much to earn their salary. no training programs or mentorship. best for experienced people as they can do what they deem is right for the client
