Vantaggi

You can make some pretty great relationships with your colleagues, but most of them are made from finding out that they also want to leave. You're basically bonding over how bad Qnary is and gossiping about who's next to "fly from the nest". I would have given 1 star, but the friendships I made and am maintaining boosted the rating to 2. Since leaving, Qnary has ramped up hiring, which MIGHT help with the cons below if managed properly. This is helpful as a first job out of college to get some experience on your resume (client-facing, content writing, social media even though Twitter is becoming obsolete, metrics reporting, paid social), but don't stay longer than you have to. If you're stressed and nothing is improving after bringing it up to your manager, it's time to go.

Svantaggi

The main problem with Qnary is that work is constantly being squeezed out of you. Most agencies think that anything more than 10 clients is too much, but Qnary thinks 25+ is doable. I knew client success managers with over 40 clients and social media strategists with over 30. They proposed a 35 client max for strategists, giving you only an hour per client a week to get all of their work done, which basically threw away your lunch break because there was a meeting every day, in addition to a 1pm Friday deadline so that CSMs could rush to send content out at the end of the week. If you care about the quality of your work, there is no way that you'll be able to finish every client in roughly an hour. Hiring new people is meant to bring down the client load, but what difference does it make when 1) you have to take on additional tasks and 2) the business development team is going to bring in new clients faster than they can hire people to manage them. In the time that it takes to train new hires and ramp up their client load, it'll already be too much again, creating an endless cycle of not being able to catch up with bizdev. When it comes to voicing your opinion, your voice barely gets heard. The whole team could complain, and you won't see any improvements for months because senior leadership is in denial that everyone hates it here. People are leaving every other week and some of them have been working for less than 6 months. No matter how many times you tell them the same exact problem isn't improving, they tell you that they're working on it, but nothing changes month over month.

Vantaggi

Qnary is a place to truly build your career no matter what role or level you join. I worked at Qnary for years and am extremely grateful for the opportunity and all the people I met and learned from along the way. I was able to be promoted several times during my tenure there. I learned a tremendous amount through my Qnary experience about business, leadership, and technology. Qnary was born in New York City, as a start up that has since grown up, but that NYC-startup vibe is in it's DNA. If you have hustle, drive, and curiosity, this is an excellent place to work and learn from the team, the leaders, and the clients. You are surrounded by go getters. If you show interest and raise your hand, you get called on. Qnary has been cultivating young talent and supporting them to climb onto the next rung - or rungs - of their careers for over a decade.

Svantaggi

It's a mostly virtual environment (with moments to come together in real life as a team). While this can appear as a pro, I've noticed it's been challenging especially for people just starting out in their careers not to be able to physically be together. Qnary, at it's heart is a startup. The company and culture is always thinking about how it can improve and do things better. Process can and does change. Critical thinking, ownership, and leadership is necessary for all roles. I viewed this as a pro because it allows for growth, but if you are looking for a place to be a cog in the wheel, it might not be the best place for you.

Vantaggi

Honestly one of the better places I've worked. The culture is genuinely good, people are collaborative, no drama, and everyone's pulling in the same direction. Communication from leadership is transparent, which you don't always get. You actually know what's going on and feel like your voice matters. And the remote work setup is a HUGE HUGE perk, there's a real trust that you'll get your work done without someone hovering over you. It gives you flexibility to manage your day and actually have a life outside of work.

Svantaggi

It's a smaller company so things can move quickly and priorities shift. You've got to be comfortable being flexible and jumping in where needed. Not a knock, just the reality of working somewhere that's still growing.
