Vantaggi

Great expertise within the company & experience to add to your resume . If you want to learn the paid ads marketing, learn it here. Many great people, fairly loose friendly environment. Fun happy hours and company events, free quarterly dinners, etc. Good benefits. 100% worth it to join, learn everything and leave for a higher position in-house in 2 years.

Svantaggi

No Promotion Opportunities: Don’t come here to get promoted or make money, come here to learn. Trying to get promoted is a part-time job itself. If you don’t play corporate games, you will forever stay in a junior PMS position, even if it’s been two years and you fully and successfully manage multiple clients. You will literally be training new management hired externally, but make less money than they do. Your promotion depends on checking off all the checkboxes on the list even if it doesn’t make sense. The list is the same for everyone, while the clients aren’t. It also depends on your team and if they celebrate you or bring you down. Workload: no one will ever demand you to stay after 5 pm, but management will gaslight you into thinking your workload is smaller than you think. Meaning, today it’s “please leave at 5 pm and no later”, tomorrow it’s “let’s talk why this task takes you two hours when it should take one” (while it really does take two hours). Burnout: the burnout rates are high, the company will squeeze 150% out of you. Many people say it’s even worse in other agencies, so pick your poison here. Clients: at a certain point your entire day will rotate around scrutinized reporting and micromanaged client calls. You will barely find time to work on the ads, accounts and strategies, your focus will solely be on squeezing some work time between client calls, so that you have something to report on weekly. Unless you enjoy it, that’s usually the time to get a new job.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you've had a positive experience with our culture, people, and growth opportunities. We also appreciate your honest comments about feeling overwhelmed at times. Agency environments can be fast-paced, and maintaining a sustainable workload is important to us. As a growing organization that has never conducted layoffs, there can occasionally be periods where demand outpaces hiring while we onboard new team members and scale to support client growth. During these times, we encourage team members to speak with their manager and make use of the support and resources available to them. Thank you again for sharing your experience. Best, Michelle (Associate Director, Talent Acquisition)

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear Thrive has supported your growth and appreciate the honest perspective on agency life. While client work can be fast-paced at times, we aim to put people first and approach agency work differently. If you’re a current team member, we encourage you to connect with your manager or our People team (myself included) to talk through your experience in more detail, we’re always open to feedback and ways to improve. Warm regards, Michelle (Associate Director, Talent Acquisition)
