Vantaggi
You get to work with some really cool beauty and luxury brands who are always looking to do and test new things within search. The office environment is pretty relaxed - hours are 10am-6pm and in the summer 930-6 and you get out at 2 on Fridays.
Svantaggi
The teams here are very siloed so you are unable to learn from other people doing different things with their brands. It's very obvious from the way things are ran that the CEO is concerned about money and trying to cut costs - this means foregoing the use of 3rd party platforms like doubleclick, hiring an influx of interns instead of real entry level employees who will stick around after you train them. Additionally, the path of growth is a gray area here and I think this also has to do with money - account managers stay in this position for awhile and i'm not entirely sure what title promotion comes after this as well as salary (account managers here are hired with different levels of experience and different salaries so its very hard to say). There seems to be disorganization with some of the teams which I think has to do with the some peoples management style and lack or processes here. The work environment is also very lacking - the office is quiet 99% of the time and everyone keeps to themselves for the most part. The CEO is very far removed from the company - when they are in the office, their office door is always shut. He rarely attends work events and rarely engages employees in conversations.
