Pros
If you’ve never had agency experience, this job will give you a “high gear” kind of experience. You’ll really brush up on multi-tasking skills and client interaction and it can be good experience for the short term.
Cons
Long term, this isn’t a job you would want to stay in as a career path. The leaders of the company do not actually possess leadership skills nor the ability to run the company or employees. It can be very unhealthy most often than none, mentally and physically. Employees are given work that will dramatically exceed their job expectations. There is no work/life balance because employees are constantly under pressure to meet very strict deadlines. There is also no kind of training; making it easier for employees to make mistakes on the client level which in turn hurts the clients only. Turnover is very high; employees are almost always leaving by their own choice. Management likes to spin it but each person who has worked here knows the truth. The company is run at a very high level when it is just a start up: being so the CEO is seen as an “untouchable”. It is very difficult to get any time with them meanwhile it is a very very very small team of employees with an even smaller client base. Events are done very half-heartedly; hardly any planning takes place so everything is done on the fly, causing mistakes to be made. And they are not in any way transparent with their team, their clients, or the public with how the company is actually doing. When employees leave, their reasoning is that they were “unfit” for bold or the environment. I don’t see that being true. People leave because their quality of life is in jeopardy the longer they stick around.
