Meaningful work. Great work/life balance. - Visual Designer Mighty Citizen Employee Review

Mighty Citizen works only with not-for-profit organizations. This matters. They could easily work with corporations and enjoy a rush of business, but leadership and employees choose MC because they want to help make the world better.

You can make 10% more at big fat agencies that don’t stand for anything beyond mere profit.

Meaningful client work and smart, collaborative coworkers. The company promoted a close-knit, mission-driven culture that many employees valued.

The agency conducted two rounds of layoffs in 2025, each impacting roughly 10% of staff. While leadership was generally transparent about broader business conditions, the scale of the reductions still came as a gut punch to employees. The agency’s ongoing public and online emphasis on culture and thought leadership feels incongruent with that experience.
