Pros

Flexibility, decent benefits, competitive pay, remote work

Cons

Just like any agency, if a client pulls an account or the C-Suite decides to cut budgets, everyone is on the chopping block.

Pros

Started as intern which was a great experience Intern manager was great Understanding of student and work life balance Answered questions and helped Good place to start your work career and get some experience but would not stay long maybe 1 year tops if even

Cons

When transitioning to full time no one know exactly what I was going to be doing. I was basically given a title and told to start on a certain day and on the first day my manager told me who'd I'd be working with and told them to catch me up to speed. Small teams within overall bigger teams, lack of communication on what exactly is going on and how everything works and comes together. Training wasn't the best. Had the opportunity to work in two different departments and see how different they are, a complete 180 I would say, usually at a successful company regardless of the department majority of the things should remain the same if especially at the same company Management was just bad overall, got scolded for taking a hour lunch even though I had been doing that as an intern and everyone in the previous department I was at did as well. So different rules at different departments I guess? Also no policy for the company overall regarding things like lunch and etc Worked with a lot of older people who looked like they should be retired already no offense just didn't see a lot of youth hired or diversity Corporate duty without corporate benefits The working environment was weird Low salaries
