Pros

-There are some wonderful people that work here. You will find pockets of extremely bright, caring, genuine individuals. -There are office snacks - they get boxes delivered each week with random assortments of stuff. -Intended values & mission are wonderful. -There are unique perks, like the Stanley Cup coming into the office.

Cons

-Change is inevitable, but it felt like many "strategic" decisions made by the most senior leadership were rolled back weeks or months later. These were often marketed to the team as "THE" game changer for the team and that this is the new way forward, with no way back. This constantly happened and ultimately eroded the faith and confidence of many team members. This also appears in other reviews, which note how inexperienced the leadership team makes themselves look. -Nepotism is widespread. Longtime employees get unwritten perks that are then not extended to newer employees. Your last name can get you undeserved praise and recognition. -Management will mislead about promotions, pay, and job trajectory. They will promote employees (oftentimes superficially), but keep shackled them to previous salary. They will tell you a career path exists, but when you earn that chance, they will come up with an excuse. And after they don't pay you more, they take lavish dinner parties. -Sales is a total mess. If you apply for a position in Sales, ask about the history of the team.

Pros

-The people are 100% the reason people stay at EVERFI for as long as they do. No doubt the best employee base you will ever have the pleasure of working with. -Casual workplace with fun events that happen in the DC office

Cons

-Co-founders are too involved in make huge company changing decisions, but aren't involved enough in the day to day operations to make those decisions strategically. -CEO pretends he loves transparency, but goes about every meeting like he's leading a pep rally and just rambles or hops over any of the negative things happening in the company. -Rest of the exec team tip-toes around the co-founders and CEO afraid to stand up for anything and let's not well thought out ideas/re-orgs/promotions get put in place. -It's not uncommon to see people that work closely to the co-founders skip from manager roles to VP roles, the favoritism is INSANE and despite the millions of reviews that say that it continues to happen. -"Yes" people get significantly further here than people that openly voice their opinions and ideas. -I have a feeling the management is writing positive reviews on here after every negative one that comes in.
