Pros

The people are the best in the company! It's a good place to start your career and learn for one year and move to a company/agency with a career plan.

Cons

In Spain, salaries are extremely low (business model) but you will become a paid social media expert in a very short period. Usually, campaigns manager work on agencies' offices and after one year the agency will hire you (take this as a great opportunity for you). Adglow growth quickly from 2016, opening offices across 15 countries but in 2019 past wrong decisions affected the business, around 20% of the staff in Spain was fired the same day, as a consequence all staff with more experience left the company in the following days. Every year the strategy of the company changed without a clear direction. In spite to invest in Dev & Product team, ADAM, the platform to manage social media campaigns doesn't work!

Pros

* Build a terrific global network * Work/life balance *Competitive pay and benefits *Strong culture, not a typical agency grind *We like to promote from within

Cons

It's a very small team in Austin, thus you have to wear many hats and that isn't for everyone. Further, with such a small team, it requires everyone to step up when someone is out on vacation, sick, etc. You really feel that temporary void. While salaries are on par with the industry, bonuses are tough to get.
