Pros

I worked with some wonderful consultants (non-leadership level)

Cons

Local leadership is a mess. If you are a white male you will do great in the company, but any woman or BIPOC watch out, you will be asked to work twice as hard for less pay and little to no recognition. They love to make you a slew of promises and then never follow through and will never take any sort of responsibility - it will always be your fault.

This is John Tobin. I really do feel bad you did not have a great time at our company - especially given your time here. The St. Louis office has gone through some changes over the years and I'm happy to see the progress they are starting to make.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
