Pros

- Growth - Flexible Schedule - Lovely Staff - Starbucks on the Organization ( company loves to pamper their employees) - Mutual respect from everyone to everyone - Culture is conducive to creating friends and mentors with lots of opportunities to get involved based on your interests .

Cons

No company is perfect. While we grow, there are things evolving ( Updating new tech, adding office space and formalizing procedures. ) that come along with any growing company. It's important to not get hung up on what is wrong and focus on what is right and the progress in action. The mindset is awarded with Appreciation here.

Pros

- Supportive team and positive team culture - Ample opportunity to learn about a wide variety of industries, take on new projects and expand your skillset in media, content creation and PR in a short amount of time - Great opportunities to network with skilled and influential business leaders - Fast-paced and exciting - if you like to be busy, this is a great environment for you - If you ask for new opportunities for growth or professional development, as well as share concerns or personal goals, leadership is excited to support you on your desired trajectory, not just within the company, but even beyond that

Cons

-Lack of onboarding protocols can leave bulk of training to current employees, which bogs down one's ability to focus on strategy, goal setting and advancing new projects for clients - Some clients can be difficult to work with and may not be a great fit for the organization as a whole. Rigorous vetting of potential clients would alleviate the stress this places on staff - Pay starts low but again, if you don't ask, you don't receive. If you advocate for yourself, there is room to change this

You don't pick your own clients - this can push you a little outside your comfort zone from time to time when working for clients in unfamiliar industries... not necessarily a bad thing in the long run!
