Pros
I loved the individual contributors that I worked with. So many big hearts and positive attitudes. That's what made it most difficult to leave. I also appreciated that my managers were supportive of my home-life/work-life priorities, and how those would often shift back and forth seasonally.
Kontras
Personify suffered from a leadership that was largely clueless but thought they had all the answers. Personify grew through acquisition, and they just never got their feet under them. There was very little product innovation or enhancement at all, which made it difficult to help our clients succeed. It also made it difficult to create exciting campaigns that felt genuine (and not just a money grab). Fresh ideas were typically met with lackluster enthusiasm and replaced with stale, lame approaches that didn't resonate with our clientele. Many of the leaders didn't understand the industry or technology, which was problematic. My direct supervisor was a scattered mess most times. Our 1-on-1s would have a different tone and outcome every week. It gave me whiplash, it felt so unfocused. And that was the tenor of much of my last two years at Personify.
