Pros

Really amazing medical benefits, and the leadership team is very involved and accessible. Colleagues are very supportive and friendly. There are frequent promotion opportunities based on revenue brought in, but this caps out quickly. When I left they were in the process of bringing in experienced PR professionals to lead the distribution team. A step in the right direction if you ask me (but not nearly enough)

Cons

Salaries are low for the amount of work required and daily pressures of the job. At the highest level, you're looking at around $75K. Very high turnover!!! Typical agency hours. Plan to work 60+ hours per week if you want to hit your targets. (not kidding. 12 hours days on the regular just to meet targets. Not for promotion of any kind) A typical day involved prospecting for new contacts to email at Fortune 500 and other companies with high earnings, sending as many cold emails as possible, and jumping on sales calls to read a scripted pitch to prospective clients. The work is incredibly boring and repetitive, and people get burnt out quickly. 2 weeks advance notice needed to use PTO, and at least a weeks notice required to take a half day. I wound up using a lot of sick days to run errands or recover from burnout.
