You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a low-key, offbeat workplace drama about ambition, money, and shifting priorities, closer to Up in the Air than a broad comedy; Not for you if you need fast pacing and big laughs.

Pros: engaging performances; thoughtful life-choices themes; tense workplace energy | Cons: slow start; uneven tone; lighter-than-expected comedy
