Great place to work and lear - Graphic Designer Enclosed Employee Review

Working at Enclosed enabled to see all sides of a start-up. I gained hands-on experience in developing social media strategy and overseeing Enclosed's marketing rollout. I got to work really closely with my co-workers to research PR initiatives and get Enclosed press coverage. It was really rewarding to see this whole process. In addition, I got to conduct a summer-long project on Enclosed's renewals strategy.

Because Enclosed is a start-up company, people working here need to learn how to be more flexible. Working at start-up requires someone who is willing to help in all stages of an early start-up.

The concept is a good one and the CEO, Antonia Townsend, is very very smart. She cares about the details and is set on her concept. She is a very talented marketer and has a pretty good head for finance.

The CEO has been running the business without senior executive assistance for several years. She is used to doing things "her way" and doesn't always seem receptive to different solutions. She micromanages and isn't used to managing by outcomes. She manages actual process, even if it isn't optimum. When she learns how to delegate at a senior level, she will be a great CEO. If you are applying as an executive, probe for how you would be managed and evaluated.
