Pros

Decent benefits like zero cost healthcare

Cons

If you care about your mental health and value yourself, do not work here. Management is hella shady, and ever since the private equity acquisition, there have been a lot of structural change and reorganization to the company with little vision and foresight in mind. Policies are always changing, and there are unclear expectations around what’s expected of you, which is frequently projected by lousy managers who don’t know what the hell they’re doing. I’ve met some great people during my time at the company, but most of the brightest people I’ve met have since parted ways with the company for greener pastures (and probably see that it’s a sinking ship). This company claims that it cares about diversity, and it’s a joke. Most of the C-Suite partners, managers and even associates, come from similar racial and socio-economic backgrounds. You’re expected to work overtime and you are not compensated for it. The pay is NOT aligned with the amount of work you’ll be doing in this position. They say that there’s a “clear” path to promotion, which may be true from the associate to senior associate roles. After that, your path to growth is unclear and subject to change.

Pros

The people generally aren’t bad.

Cons

How would you like to help the interest of companies under litigation for pesticides? How about big pharma and big tobacco? Maybe you’ve dreamed of helping a certain home sharing service get into nyc during a housing shortage or beleaguered ai platform fix its reputation? Big banks justifying fees is another favorite. Penta is struggling. It can’t even articulate what it does. It’s using GPTs to create faulty agents and then selling that as some newfangled product. If you have any self respect or ounce of ethics left you’ll work for a different firm that actually makes the world a better place.
