Great clients, valuable experience! - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Evyn Block Communications

Very small PR firm, this allowed for a lot of hands on experience, close knit employees, great accounts, plenty of social media experience, was able to attend events held by the clients, flexible hours (as an intern). I was able to learn so many new aspect of the PR world thanks to EBC due to the fact that the firm is small. I attended an array of events, and was able to dip in to different areas of PR such as social media, Press Release writing, and media list creation. The staff were so warm and welcoming, and always were very kind to me. I interned at EBC twice, and both were unforgettable experiences.

Some down-time, there aren't many other cons

The experience you will get at EBC is unparalleled to other PR firms since it is a small company that requires you to wear many hats. As an Account Assistant that was promoted to Account Associate, I communicated with media off the bat and grew my contacts/portfolio significantly faster than other Assistant AE. The clients are interesting and diverse, which allows you to discover what you are interested in. Compensation is greater than other PR firms with regular 6-month performance reviews.

Direct deposit is not an option and you are hand given a paycheck bi-weekly. This may lead to occasions when you are not paid on time. Sr. Management is willing to hand-write you compensation if this occurs.
