Pros

Co-CEOs are both strong and some people are smart, professional, and nice to work with. Some projects are really interesting and give good learning.

Cons

But the company is evolving maybe too quick. Now there is too much focus on politics and looking inclusive, and less on real performance. Staffing feel sometimes not fair, not always the best person get the role. Culture is not same like before, and for some people this new direction maybe not feel right.

Pros

I really loved this company from the start from onboarding and the like Competitive base salary/decent bonus structure especially if you're in the preferred circles. Comprehensive benefits package: the basics are covered. Generous PTO policy on paper though actually taking it can be a challenge depending on your case load and leadership's mood. Strategic work in high-stakes situations. You’ll see real business challenges just don’t expect the same level of transparency internally.

Cons

Despite the shiny marketing and constant talk of being a meritocracy, the structure is deeply hierarchical. Promotions are sluggish and unevenly distributed. For such a small group, the culture feels cold and fragmented. Mid-level leaders are kept in a holding pattern with little ability to shape projects or drive initiatives. If you’re not part of the trusted few, expect to be heavily managed, second-guessed, and underutilized. Also a striking disconnect between what’s preached in internal communications and what’s practiced.

Pros

- Teams dynamics are made up of driven professionals, amazing collabs and problem-solving. - Compensation wise is good. - EA's are great support, especially during high-pressure times. - Travel allowance and logistics during business travel are handled efficiently. - Exposure to several great profile clients in Telecom, Media & Tech brings strong professional growth opportunities.

Cons

1. Promotions and performance appraisals often appear biased HR processes lack transparency and fairness. 2. Leadership focuses heavily on results but doesn't adequately consider team burnout either long-term sustainability as well 3. WorkLife balance is nearly impossible to maintain at senior levels, it can feel like it’s draining your lifetime energy. 4. Internal systems are outdated and unorganized, leading to inefficiencies and duplicated work.
