Pros

Allows casual dress for employees, there are many close relationships built - the GA office really supports each other. Depending on which location you work in, the teams are fun. Unlimited PTO.

Cons

There’s very little room to move up. Advancement is based on favoritism and the higher ups don’t offer assistance when requested. The pay is below average. The VP to CEO level is very us vs them.

Pros

-Depending on what team you're on, you get a lot of autonomy. (on the flip side, see con- if you're on the wrong team) -Good benefits -Fun events & Travel opportunities

Cons

-People getting laid off left and right all time. One minute you have a team mate and the next they are just gone. -Management is top heavy and operates like a fraternity -If you're on the wrong team every move is watched -Your job is NEVER safe -Imagine with the acquisition that was just announced by Apollo that the reason for layoffs was to become lean before transition. I would hedge bets that this will also continue to be a numbers game and positions are going to be uncertain -Sales plans are always ambiguous and there were even times where the plan wasn't out until several months into the year. Expected to sell over and above but didn't always have a sales plan to follow. It was always changing.
