Svantaggi

I will never be able to fully convey in words all the ways the leadership of this organization caused the most significant emotional and financial damage I’ve ever experienced in my life. I invested multiple years and immense care & energy into my career at Hook Agency. I never missed a single deadline, was awarded by my peers for exemplifying core values, and seamlessly ran a tight ship that saved the company money & resources— yet I was failed by leadership time and time again. Leadership has admitted to learning multiple damaging lessons at my expense, but they’ve never once extended me an apology on a personal level. While you may have a perfectly fine experience working for Hook, I would be remiss to not share my experience, especially for any women considering employment at this company. I encourage any women who appreciate being able to composedly share informed opinions about their area of expertise without fear of retaliation from an emotionally-reactive, immature, and defensive leader to look for employment elsewhere.

Thank you for your feedback and for acknowledging the enjoyable coworkers and good benefits at Hook Agency. We’re all humans and constantly striving to improve. We hate having to let go of teammates, but occasionally do based on core values, ethics, or if someone consistently communicates dissatisfaction with their work and leaders. We believe people in that situation will be happier at a different company. As the owner, I recognize that I can be reactive and immature at times, and I’m actively working on growing in these areas. Your feedback is (for real) valued. Regarding the remark about females looking elsewhere, I’d like to clarify a few points. Half of our executive leadership team is women, and more than half of our company is women. The reactive situations I’ve experienced have typically involved men. Nonetheless, we are committed to creating a supportive environment for everyone. Thank you again for your input. I promise it is heard, and will be on my mind for sure. It’s feedback like yours that helps us grow as a company and as individuals. I hope I’m not done growing yet, as a human. Tim Brown, Owner / CEO of Hook Agency

Vantaggi

Strong values-driven culture, lots of opportunity due to company growth, hard-working leadership that cares, present owners, consistent push to elevate and grow with opportunities for development, strong focus on employee well-being and benefits.

Svantaggi

This company is scaling quickly, so we see the growing pains that come with that - quickly changing processes which may sometimes not get documented and some small communication gaps. There's an expectation for new hires to level up quickly, which can be hard for some, so we're actively working on streamlining the onboarding process to address that.

Vantaggi

Hook really is a great place to work! The culture is awesome — the perfect balance between friendly and professional. Overall people are excited to come and get stuff done while having fun even when busy. Hook has also given me a lot of opportunity to grow into new roles and new skills, they're really wanting to invest in their people, which is great.

Svantaggi

As with any growing business, workload can really be variable. During our busy months it can feel like it's a lot, but never do I feel "expected" to work an unreasonable amount.
