Pros

Since you will be severely overworked doing the job of several people, you will gain an entire lifetime of experience in a short period of time. But seriously, don’t do it. This place is a circus.

Cons

Absolutely toxic environment. Work-life balance does not exist. It’s a running joke how you will never be caught up or not be stressed. In team meetings you will hear the silence of employees who have been beaten down with nothing left to give. You’ll be told to prioritize but in the same breathe will be given more non-negotiable, competing goals. You will be pushed to your breaking point and then be assigned even more duties. You will hear about record sales and large bonuses while you’re stuck working 10+ hour days, drowning in the changing weekly goals, all while they deny requests for additional staff to deliver on the ever-increasing workload. You will be laughed at when you are stressed, bullied into decisions and additional work, and will receive “meeting expectations” at the end of the year so that your raise doesn’t break their budget. You will feel like you are constantly failing because you will never be given the support you need to actually succeed.

Pros

Great work-life balance, move like a startup even for a 1k person organization. Pivots quick from top down. Very clear communications from top leadership on goals.

Cons

Silos, so many companies acquired by them that it's a challenge understanding what's going on cross-departmentally. Even figuring out who to reach through comms is, in and of itself a huge challenge.

Pros

Only pro was work from home

Cons

The marketing department was extremely cliquish, and it often felt like long-tenured employees had mastered the art of throwing others under the bus to protect themselves. Collaboration and accountability took a back seat to office politics. My biggest warning to prospective employees is regarding HR. In my experience, bringing concerns to HR only resulted in those concerns being turned back on the employee. I never felt supported or advocated for, and the process felt designed to protect management rather than address legitimate issues. If you are expecting HR to be a neutral resource for employees, that was not my experience. Staffing gaps routinely resulted in additional responsibilities being pushed onto existing employees without adequate support, creating an environment where expectations continued to increase while resources did not.
