Pros
Decent hours/ not many weekends. Snacks. Location
Cons
-No project Managers. Execs did not want to hire one- everything was always all over, on a google doc, or on a giant white board. - There is also no HR on staff. They have one person doing the job of 3. Much like a lot of the people there. -The creative "leader" they assigned is not a leader. Inappropriate comments, lies, and misogyny flooded the place and turned it into even more of an uncomfortable environment. This person could walk around and insult everyone all day long but there was no insulting their ego. Beware. -Felt like a case of Stockholm Syndrome honestly. -Back to misogyny -Status meetings were always a hoorah meeting with "You guys need to step it up and win us clients for money. Then maybe we can talk about getting more people hired." Oh yeah- understaffed. Not sure at what point will they be adequately staffed. -Your day is jam packed with work that all somehow needs to be out at the same time. Which put a damper on Account & Creatives. -You were almost always set up to fail. No one took accountability for their flaws. -Clients got too comfortable with asks out of thin air and never trained to work with a small agency. -Senior Creatives (copy & art), you will work on banner ads and multiple social posts on top of writing scripts and planning out shoots. -Always arguments in the air. Shouting matches between Execs. Hard to concentrate with that going on. - Really felt like they set themselves up for a mess when they promise clients the world of a large agency but in a small one. Expectations are insane and the toll they take on everyone SHOWS. -Oh, and health insurance is pricey.
