Pros

Great Happy Hours and Holiday parties, beer on Friday if you "hit" your numbers, nice office location and building

Cons

-the office management is EXTREMELY young, and it shows -turnover within the first year is around 70%, wish I would have known about this HUGE warning sign -when you talk to recruiters, they sell you on ridiculously inaccurate salary averages. YOU WILL MAKE 30,000-34,000 as a recruiter, terrible pay with 1% commission -extreme pressure to hit numbers so you are expected to be in office before 7:30 am and expect to stay till 6-6:30 at $30,000 -If you are female, YOU MUST wear high heels everyday all day when you are cold calling all day -You are assigned A or B lunch each day, is this high school? -You will be promoted if and only if you are "popular" with the account managers -Atmosphere is that of a sorority/fraternity house (might serve as a PRO to some) but not how I wanted my professional atmosphere to be, but it makes sense as the average office age is 25 yrs old including mgmt When I left the company there were 4 others that left within that same month, which is a lot considering total office size is around 30 people.

Pros

Fast hiring process, responsive contacts, easy to follow process and documentation and the usual optional benefits for a contractual employee and they do have an option for 401k after a 3 months of employment.

Cons

None that I can think of. I have never missed a paycheck from them.

Pros

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Cons

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
