      Pros

      The culture is fun, and we have great benefits. Honestly for the most part I do love working for Disruptive and with the people around me

      Cons

      The CEO created another business that he is making all employees of DA use and pay for. This is a serious time and emotional energy commitment every single week. Although I do believe in the business and want to particiate, it feels very wrong to force (yes, we have no choice) to commit to such when we have so much going on with a restructure, and so much going on in our lives that leadership doesnt know about. I wish it was at least optional, but since its not, it feels like something Jake is doing to make money off of us. When asked if we had to he said "if you dont want to take the courses, maybe you arent a good fit for Disruptive" which honestly was really jarring. Leadership truly, truly doesnt understand how things actually work for the people doing the jobs. They made decisions and have opinions that make no sense to the majority, but I do appreciate them trying to get feedback and learn.

      I’m happy to hear you enjoy the culture, benefits, and people you work with, and thank you for sharing your concerns as well. I want to acknowledge how you’re feeling and also need to state that many of your concerns are simply not accurate. Our training program with Disruptive University is not a different business nor does it require employees to pay for it, it’s our internal training program to help develop our employees as people and marketers that we are also now providing to people outside of the agency as well. Yes, we require everyone at the agency to go through our training program because it’s how we conduct our business. We realize and are sensitive to the fact that it is an additional time commitment, so we provided a 6-month advance notice for people who had not completed the training to choose their best start date. With all that being said, let’s work together to find a solution that sets you up for success with the support you need; we’re on the same team.

      Pros

      As a newer employee at Disruptive, I've felt really welcomed and supported by my team, which has been nice. It’s definitely a fast paced environment, but that’s pretty typical in the agency world and not something I see as a negative. One thing I appreciate is that Disruptive takes the time to understand the “why” behind client goals which makes the work feel more meaningful. It feels like there is a real effort to provide the right resources and support to succeed. I’ve also found the DU courses to be valuable from what I know about them so far.

      Cons

      None that I have experienced so far

      Glad your first few months here have been good. Caring about the why behind client goals is a big part of how we try to operate, and I'm glad that's coming through. Hope your experience keeps getting better from here.

      Pros

      - Fully remote with the option for office use for locals - Pretty good work life balance - Love the people on my team - Caring committee budget to fund community give-back projects - Money games - A lot of genuinely great clients

      Cons

      - It can be high pressure to be responsible to drive results for clients and their business growth - In order to achieve career and salary growth, you typically have to find a way to balance work across 20+ accounts while also doing great work - There are things on the administrative/corporate owned side of things creating direct barriers to keeping clients happy

      The advice landed. Future vision is where I tend to live, and "more tactical, more transparent" is a fair push. I'll take it. The cons you named are real too. Pressure to drive client results across a heavy book of business is part of the work here, and the administrative friction is something we're working on. None of it is invisible to me. Grateful you're here and grateful you took the time to write this.
