Pros
Mostly good people (everyone except upper management).
Kontras
This was one of the most demoralizing work environments I’ve experienced. Despite marketing itself as global and progressive, employees from abroad or on Visa were routinely devalued and treated as expendable. There was a clear hierarchy of whose voices mattered—and whose didn’t. Public name-calling and condescension from senior consultants and also leadership (CEO, in specific) was normalized. Being spoken down to, corrected publicly, or mocked in meetings wasn’t an exception—it was part of the culture. Psychological safety did not exist. Turnover was constant. Layoffs happened frequently and without transparency, creating an atmosphere of fear where people were more focused on survival than doing good work. At the same time, the level of scrutiny was extreme: every deliverable was dissected, and even internal meeting notes were monitored and criticized. Nothing was ever “good enough,” yet expectations were constantly shifting. If you thrive under pressure, ego-driven leadership, and constant surveillance, this may be a fit. If you value respect, stability, and being treated like a professional adult, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere.
