Bospar is an excellent PR, AR, marketing, social media and content agency - Content Director Bospar Employee Review

This company truly invests in their employees. There are weekly trainings on everything from media list building and pitching to understanding niche deep tech clients, and genuinely every person at this company is willing and happy to answer any and all questions. When I first joined, I was as green as one could be to PR, and with Bospar's help I have quickly grown into a true PR professional. I owe my PR career to this company, and if I could go back in time and choose again, I would choose to start my career here every single time. The Principal of the company, Curtis, takes the time to meet with the "point people" regularly and openly accepts one on one meetings with everyone at all levels to discuss career growth and ways to make the company better. I have worked in many different jobs and for many different companies, and this is the first company I have worked at where it truly feels like everyone at all levels cares about each other. I look forward to working here for many years to come.

While there is no explicit command to work long hours, you will more than just occasionally be working past the official hours of "9 to 6" and a true lunch hour is more of a myth. This seems to be much more common at the lower levels, but even the very top of the company work long hours and weekend hours as needed. This is PR after all! However, there are lots of ways that the company compensates for extra time, and flexing hours if you have to stay late the next day is allowed. Plus, if client work permits, you get to log off on Friday at 3 pm which goes a long way in helping balance out the longer work hours on weekdays. Additionally, the workload is sometimes strenuous, and a lot of that could be improved by more consistent team structure so that higher level teammembers could better monitor the worklevels of the lower level teammembers. However, this is hard to do while also allowing AAEs/AEs to diversify into as many areas as possible, so it is a give and take.

Bospar is one of the more flexible agencies I've worked at. The fully distributed model makes a meaningful difference in quality of life. Compensation and benefits are also above industry standards, and leadership creates room for those who want to grow to have the opportunity to do so.

Account staffing can run lean, and the people who do well here are those comfortable wearing multiple hats, while managing competing priorities on their own.
