- Everyone really has your back and believes in you - they hire the very best - Really smart people with insight into cutting-edge challenges - customer data stitching, omni-channel orchestration, AI in marketing, etc. - Flat organization - you can talk to the CEO and other execs any time you want - Interesting work - mix of strategy & process consulting, technology implementation, and marketing agency work - Flexible work policies - easy to flex work around family and other responsibilities; I work a ~40-hour week while doing management / strategy consulting work - Company direction - we really provide compelling partnership to top-tier clients with cutting-edge thinking and implementation on data fluidity, customer engagement, and sales & marketing execution
Cons
- As with all consultancies, work ebbs and flows; if several projects have deadlines at the same time, it can get stressful. That being said, I have always found other Shifters to lean in to help!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! If you ever tire of RevOps, I got a job for you in Talent Acquisition! ;-) We appreciate the time you took to explain why you love being a Shifter; keep that feedback coming!
Lots of room to create your own structure and process.
Respectful that employees are people.
The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service.
Tons of opportunity for learning.
Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.
Cons
It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

Pros
You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.
Cons
The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines.
It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations.
They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously.
We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues. Again, thank you for the feedback.
