Pros

Really varied projects means you'll never be bored The opportunity to travel the world, as part of your job Work on projects for international brands and enterprise clients Gain in depth digital marketing experience that is recognized in the industry Strong partnerships with technology vendors like Google, Adobe and Salesforce make it easy to obtain recognized certifications Great colleagues with a sense of humour Great office perks, like lunch three days a week in the Cape Town office and fun office socials. Great quality coffee to keep you going Well days in addition to your normal annual leave

Cons

Due to the fast moving nature of our business, the company has to move fast to stay at the top of our game. If you do not like change and innovation, this might not be the company for you.

Pros

As a small but powerful marketing strategy and technology consulting practice, I found the people and work creative, fun and hugely beneficial to our clients and to me as a consultant with many years experience. Acceleration brings some extraordinary talent and entrepreneurial flair to some of the leading marketers on the planet. Backed by WPP's Wunderman, enabled our teams to tap deep resource and open doors at the highest levels. I was impressed with the level of knowledge, experience and a unique balance of "drive" and care for work-life balance. Acceleration also has some outstanding leadership who are always ready to roll-up their sleeves and to pitch in, mentor and open doors to professional advancement.

Cons

Downsides are few ... being "smaller", there's always a tension in meeting a healthy level of demand with limited but exceptionally skilled resource (often, its a nice problem to have).
