Vantaggi
Projects are always interesting. There is a lot to do to take this company to the next level. In order to be a social company, the company goals and direction must shift quickly to keep pace with this fast-moving industry. Marketwired does this well. The working atmosphere is very positive and teamwork is strongly encouraged. Integrity, client commitment, and openness are values held by the company and individual employees. For front-line employees facing clients, their commitment to customer services is outstanding. Benefits are very good. HR is supportive and turns requests quickly. Engineering and IT staff work very hard to meet constant change requests. Our CEO is a visionary who pushes employees hard to tighten infrastructure, accountability, and work systems. Sometimes it's hard to keep up, but the leadership seems to know what they are doing and is open to constructive criticism.
Svantaggi
This is not the place for employees that are not self-starters. Nor is it the place for employees who expect to put problems or concerns on their manager's shoulders rather than working together to find solutions. If you want to be challenged to do things differently, and you want to build something that will keep pace with change in both social media and traditional PR/IR, then this is a great place to work. Since many leaders and managers operate remotely, communication is sometimes challenging.
