Pros

I loved working at DirectiveGroup. I worked here for 5 years. I loved the flexibility when it came to personal commitments I had to make and I also loved the team I worked with. If I could make it work I would continue to work here, I had to leave due to a busy home life. I learned so much about processes and procedures here and gained a ton of knowledge in the agency department.

Cons

I wasn't able to get the face to face time with my fellow employees but we made it work. One of the downsides of working from home is missing the interaction with other people.

Thank you so much for this great description of your experience about working at DirectiveGroup. We have been fortunate to have A-Players on our team, which allowed us to develop a high performance environment that was/is also virtual.

Pros

As a remote worker who was brought on to assist with writing and editing content, I am very pleased with my experience at DirectiveGroup. The leadership is very communicative, patient, and helpful and all of the staff are also collaborative and eager to assist. There is a good variety of projects to work on for the customers and the entire experience has been a wonderful experience where I have been able to exercise my professional skills while learning about the field of digital marketing.

Cons

Some of the remote aspects are challenging in terms of communication and organization, but the leadership is very approachable and open to any input about how to improve.

I was surprised and saddened to see this review. I am not sure if it was posted by a DirectiveGroup employee since we don’t have any employees in Tampa. Wherever an employee resides, however, we do have an open-door policy, and we support employee wellbeing actively through programs like COA to develop communication and other emotional fitness skills. Our goal is that every employee here feels supported and is able to raise concerns they have about the work environment, either to the CEO or to HR (at our PEO). The concern described here was never raised so has not been deliberately addressed. That said, we do have standards and we do have processes that we expect everyone at our virtual company to follow. These are crucial to keeping us all in sync with each other and they support our business mission to deliver exceptional value. If an employee were to feel micromanaged, they are likely a new employee being taught the processes or they are on a counseling/coaching program to overcome deficiencies. Other employees here are extremely independent in their work schedules and execution of daily work, coming together primarily for group activities and progress updates. This is why we screen for self-starters with strong initiative; our structure and expectation for high performance requires us to do our utmost to hire only A-players who want to work side by side with other A-players.
