Pros

Working as a Lead Account Executive for Strategic Commerce Partnerships at Digital Trends Media Group (DTMG) has been an incredibly positive experience. From day one, I've had the chance to grow with the company and tackle exciting projects for brands of all sizes. One of the best parts of my job is getting to create media plans for a wide range of clients, from big tech companies to smaller startups. Each project brings its own challenges and opportunities, making my work always interesting and rewarding. Whether it's developing in-depth branded content or crafting attention-grabbing video sponsorships, I love finding the right solutions to meet our clients' goals​​​​. What really sets DTMG apart is the amazing team environment. Everyone here is so supportive, and we truly celebrate each other's successes. It's great to know that when I achieve a sales goal, the whole company is cheering me on. This supportive atmosphere makes coming to work every day enjoyable and motivating. Even the Editor-in-Chief started out as an intern at Digital Trends many years ago. It's amazing to see how everyone has grown with the company over the years. In short, my time at Digital Trends Media Group has been all about growth, teamwork, and learning. I'm grateful for the opportunities I've had and look forward to achieving even more with my fantastic the team in the future.

Cons

Fast-Paced Environment - The dynamic nature of the job can sometimes be a lot to get used to at first.

Pros

-Flexible PTO -Work from home

Cons

Digital Trends Media Group (or Digital Trends, if you prefer) is a cesspool of terrible leadership, fragile egos, poor revenue, and no direction. The CEO shifts direction every few months because he is just a terrible businessperson. Sales can’t make the company any money. All the websites DTMG owns rely on former glory, but traffic on all of them is down at LEAST 80% in the past few years. You will have no tools you need, freelancers won’t get paid for the work they do, you will be lied to repeatedly, and there’s a ton of turnover at this small, failing publisher. DTMG is a complete joke. Finding a job is hard, but there’s no such thing as a career at DTMG. If you’re offered a job here that you have to take because you have bills to pay, get out as fast as you can. DTMG leadership has tons of skeletons in the closet. They’ll tell you that’s not who they are. They’re lying. This company and its people are toxic and petty. Every positive review this company has is solicited; none of them are genuine. I know because the former COO asked everyone to give a positive review here to boost the company's ranking. AVOID DTMG.
