Pros

Forthea is small, but it's full of smart, dedicated individuals with a vast array of talents. Everybody here is an A+ player and most have experience with some of the "bigger" agencies in town. Employees here are attracted to it because they can create real chance and be part of building something special. Company culture is professional yet laid back. A number of new clients have lead to some nice growth and the addition of new teammates.

Cons

They are sticklers for process, and some see that as a negative. I would argue that having a solid structure in place will support increased growth without going through the fire-drills other agencies go through when they see increased growth.

Pros

Leadership actually knows who you are. You are not just another employee, but a valued person on the team.

Cons

While working in an agency you have to cater to clients. There can be a feeling of being walked over and never picked back up with certain ones.

Pros

Forthea produces good work, has defined processes and provides decent work-life balance.

Cons

Since 2020 the majority of senior staff have left and were replaced by junior level employees. The company now has a very different vibe and the remaining senior talent is looking to get out. There is inconsistency in how people are treated and a number of broken promises that has reduced morale. Some are required to maintain the 3 days in office hybrid schedule, while others work from home weeks at a time. One person comes and go as they please with little accountability or concern when they disappear after 2pm daily. Don’t even get me started on opportunities for women or how we are treated with a subtle disregard.
