Pros
I learned a lot of new SEO tactics and techniques from my supervisors and had exposure working on some well known brands (Brands I actually love working on!) Many of my colleagues were very kind, patient, great team players and absolutely brilliant in their roles as digital marketers. I was happy to say I was not the smartest person in the room.
Cons
The maritime theme parallels this marketing agency as being one purely focused on Discovery, which I love as a concept, but now I realize there may be a tongue-in-cheek reference now. It's probably called Pacfic for the layoffs, business insability, and "disappearances" of colleagues that are about as frequent and unpredictable as the tides of the actual ocean this place is named after. Reading these reviews and experiencing what I've experienced in my short time here, I really should've heeded to the warnings online and the hints that my coworkers mentioned in passing about this place. The expectations seem high for many of the clients and the team can only provide so much within the framework they're expected to work in. Strangely, the ratio of associates to executives is lopsided beyond measure. Every Monday Mashup I would ask what half of them do on a daily basis. As friendly as everyone is, I really would've appreciated transparency and a heads up that things were going south with this one particular client well in advance. It shouldn't be hard to forecast that given that there are four or so people in charge of client services.
