Drink the Vested Kool-Aid or be Shunned
Pros
- The team is friendly (to an extent) - The occasional event with food and drinks included
Cons
- Constant feel of competition pressure between colleagues to have to do better than each other (not in a good way) - Extremely top heavy with seniors not willing to help pick up any workload and expect anything remotely admin to be handled by juniors - Expanding on the previous point, this prevented juniors from being able to excel in their role and go above and beyond and think creatively or strategically for their clients - The team was a lot of shouting of 'accomplishments' but when it came down to it, no one wanted to actually do the work - Cult-like environment - very uncomfortable - Everyone seemed fake and like no one liked each other
