- Severely understaffed. Burnout is inevitable.
- Deveney will be your worst client. Ownership suffers from analysis paralysis. It takes months of meetings and revisions for the most mundane and simple of tasks.
- President and COO (formerly CFO) are romantically involved, yet completely lack communication in the workplace. Their goals and approaches contradict each other at every turn, and it's up to the staff to manage that communication. Yikes.
- COO is a former professor who treats staff like his students. Despite have ZERO marketing experience, he's always sitting with a red pen, waiting to mark up your work and critique your process after the fact. Most employees dread going into his office due to his condescending and blame-fueled tone.
- If ownership feels you are weak at a particular soft skill (e.g., email etiquette, conflict resolution, tardiness, etc.) you will be forced to research the subject and give a lunch and learn to the entire team on ways to improve your bad habit.
- No room for advancement. The COO changes the position hierarchy on a whim every year to give the illusion of career growth. - Deveney has the highest hourly rate in the market, making it difficult to present fully integrated marketing strategies to prospective clients at a reasonable price.
- Low pay
