Seriously, this place is not worth it. - Anonymous EMMA International Employee Review

Pros

There are no pros for this company.

Cons

Extremely unrealistic expectations from leadership despite not being trained properly or effectively. During my time here I personally experienced leadership talk poorly about current/former employees because it is so easy to overhear conversations in a small office. I witnessed a current employee (at the time) be called a f***ing idiot behind their back, among many other horrible things. This is not a professional work environment by any means and the language used around the office reflects that. They have a terrible sense of office culture and do not have a friendly environment, which is important considering they require employees to work 100% full time in-person. If you value any form of work-life balance, this is not the place for you. Leadership will call at 11pm even while you are out on PTO and then will make comments that you are not reachable while out of office. This place sets you up for failure from day-1 and the close knit circle of leadership only care for themselves and not the wellbeing of other employees.

Pros

Limited positives beyond exposure to multiple areas of the business.

Cons

Role boundaries are unclear and responsibilities frequently expand well beyond the original job description. Employees may find themselves managing administrative work, operational coordination, internal systems transitions, client support, pipeline management, and proposal development all at once. There is a strong expectation of constant availability and immediate responsiveness, which can extend beyond standard working hours. A 40-hour workweek is treated as the minimum expectation rather than the standard, with hours regularly extending beyond that. Communication from leadership can at times feel unprofessional and would not be considered appropriate in most workplace settings. A recurring theme involves leadership speaking negatively about both former and current employees. This type of commentary creates an uncomfortable work environment, affects team morale, and raises questions about how any employee may be discussed when they are not in the room. Turnover in certain roles has been noticeable. Several people cycling through the same role within a two year period is worth examining as a structural issue rather than an individual one. There is also a heavy operational dependency placed on very few employees, which suggests the business would benefit from stronger operational structure overall.
