      Pros

      Friendly coworkers. If you really want to work in PR and you need a start, do it here for six months and get out and find a decent job.

      Cons

      The boss, CEO RT. RT doesn't have the best reputation in the industry and is unhelpful and unimaginative. There is a general lack of direction and strategy.

      Pros

      Decent raises and promotions if you work hard. Learn a lot quickly in regard to media relations. A few laid back people but they don't stay very long.

      Cons

      long hours, you get grilled if you leave before 6:30 pm. Besides pitching, what do you do? Learned nothing else. Nasty supervisors (depending on your team) Nothing is ever good enough. If you place your client in a top media outlet, within minutes you're getting grilled to produce the next big thing. Shallow people.

      Thank you for taking the time to review 5W. While we are glad to hear that you are happy with our compensation and promotion process, and that you are learning on the job, I wanted to address some of your concerns since we never like to hear that someone is not happy with certain aspects of their job. We pride ourselves on communicating the importance of work-life balance across the agency. While there are always times when clients’ needs will require working additional hours, we want this to be the exception rather than the norm. We also work very hard to promote a respectful collaborative culture and if you feel otherwise please bring this up to HR so that we can be sure to properly address the matter. We value all feedback received and so that we can continue to improve and grow as an agency. Your response has been shared with leadership.
