Vantaggi
• My peers have been some of the most talented, kindest, hardest working and most hilarious people I've ever collaborated with. I’m lucky to count many of them as good friends. • Dogs in the office brighten even the most soul-crushing days. • Used to be a great place to cut your teeth and work on a wide variety of clients and projects. • Free parking, free healthcare (if you're single), bonuses and surprise holiday checks (when I first started) are major benefits. • Small budgets and scrappy accounts give people the chance to wear many hats and discover new skills.
Svantaggi
• Fear-based, sweatshop culture consistently rewards awful people and creates a toxic environment where everyone puts in insane hours and puts out mediocre creative work because of it. • The anxiety level of the agency is palpable. Psychological safety does not exist for many employees. • The current leadership team is in over their heads. They’re unable to take accountability, even just a little bit, and blame the constant loss of new business and current clients on anything and everyone but themselves. • Teams aren't empowered to do great work. There's a complete lack of trust and ownership. • There are no growth opportunities, particularly in creative, and especially for women.
