If you're just starting out in the PR/Comms industry and looking to gain lots of experience out the gate, Maroon PR is great. Being in an agency setting, you'll be exposed to lots of clients at once (anywhere from 4-7) and work closely with your Account Directors. Clients can range across industries from Sports and Retail to Nonprofit and Hospitality. The team is honestly fantastic, young, fun, and a great support system. Everyone really cares about each other and wants to see you succeed. In your role, you'll do a little bit of everything from public relations work to social and paid media work. There is a fun company culture that consists of team building activities, happy hours, etc.

Cons are very subjective and vary person to person. For me personally, it's a lot of work for very little pay/compensation. Personally, I have often felt extremely stressed or overwhelmed within my role, relatively consistently. Sometimes its not so bad, however that really depends on the time of year, clients, etc. I am in positions where I have to work overtime frequently to meet timely deadlines or to play catch-up. The salary is also very low/very underpaid. Again, cons are subjective - there are a lot of pros that come with Maroon PR (team, culture, type of work, etc.) but agency life is not for everyone.
