Onsite Gym & Locker Rooms/Shower Facilities Tuesday Candy / Snack Cart Friday Half Days during the Summer (every other Friday)

Svantaggi

Having worked in the marketing/advertising industry for many years, I was up for the "fast-paced work environment". From the moment I started, I could sense tension within the department. You have to be on Red Bull intravenously to work here. Within the first 2-3 weeks, I saw 2 people break down and cry within my department. In addition, I saw numerous emails from management announcing people resigning every day. Many young people have no clue that the crazy pace at this place isn't normal. The workload is utterly unfathomable. Hundreds of emails a day, clients and upper management emailing all hours of the night (do these people sleep)? It is great that they offer so many "perks" but too bad no one has time to enjoy them given the ridiculous workload and pace. Their idea of being strategic is pushing clients to do things that aren't in the client's best interest to meet revenue goals. The great culture and work-life balance they promote in interviewing is nothing but a means to get you in the door. I've never experienced workload, stress, cliques, email overload, and turnover anywhere like this place in all my years in the business. The people who left positive reviews of this place are interal PR spokespeople who are trying to save their image because of high turnover and employee dissatisfaction.

Vantaggi

Strong remote‑first culture, which I appreciated.

Svantaggi

I was one week into the job when my manager informed me that my pre‑planned vacation would not be approved. This trip was booked and fully paid for a year in advance, and it was meant to celebrate several major milestones in my life: my graduation, my 30th birthday, and my anniversary. Canceling was not an option without losing several thousands of dollars. During this conversation, I was told that new hires are only allowed to take two days off at a time. This policy was never mentioned during the hiring process, and I could not find it anywhere in my new‑hire paperwork. For a company that emphasizes work‑life balance and well‑being, the lack of flexibility was surprising and disappointing. Instead of working with me on a reasonable solution, they chose to deny the request entirely. As a result, I resigned. It’s unfortunate that the company preferred to restart the hiring process rather than allow one pre‑planned vacation. I do not recommend accepting a job at this company if you have any upcoming travel or personal commitments.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry this situation was disappointing, particularly given how meaningful this trip was. PTO guidelines, including expectations for new hires, are reviewed during onboarding, and we encourage early discussion of any pre‑planned commitments. We appreciate the feedback and wish you all the best going forward
