Vantaggi

Extremely flexible remote work policy, a small cache of serviceable industry tool and technology resources

Svantaggi

- A haven of toxic masculinity and a #metoo moment waiting to happen - Full of executive level leaders with not even a basic understanding of business finance and who make decisions to lay people off using bad data. Revenue attribution is broken so you may be laid off because of a "revenue drop" when the actual issue is that the revenue was mistakenly allocated to another team in salesforce. Yes, really. - The bulk of the "training" content provided is really just Merkle indoctrination materials. You won't have time to take advantage of what little training is actually useful. - If you are being treated poorly on your account, your only recourse is to quit. If you complain you'll get kicked off and if you don't have another project lined up, it's layoff time. - As a manager you will have no power and no ability to help your team get what they need to be successful - Don't believe any of those promo videos that they keep sharing, as they are being willfully dishonest by using footage of people that was captured BEFORE they were integrated into Merkle.

Vantaggi

Merkle goes through a thoughtful process to hire people. As a result, they have really smart people who know their stuff. If you are early career, it is a great place to learn. Also, because they have such big clients, you earn lots of "street cred" as you build your resume. When you start interviewing for your next role, you get to brag about working with some of the largest brands in the world.

Svantaggi

The biggest con is that they are leaning on offshore talent a ton! When I left, they were starting to offshore so much that it was turning into a production heavy as opposed to strategy heavy agency. It is no longer the amazing company that David Williams, Craig Dempster and others had build.
