Pros

-Hired with no experience -Remote -Good teammates

Cons

-Worst micromanagement company EVER worked for. They use TimeDoctor to record your time and take screenshots of your computer screen every 3 seconds. They claim it's to track client time, yet you are called out when not tracking, even though management said you don't need to track time not working on clients. -Horrible internal communication. You find out you have a new client when it lands on your spreadsheet, yet no internal communication to discuss the client, client goals/objectives, etc. etc. -Churn and burn agency. They do a great job advertising via YouTube and sending out postcards, but they DO NOT have the processes or procedures in place to handle the clients they have. Yet they do have 100s of SOPs for you to read that are outdated. They do not give their clients the service they deserve because everyone is overworked, not trained, and does not have the tools needed to do their jobs effectively. -Extremely high turnover. I have never worked at a place where so many people are resigning and being fired at the same time. -Terrible benefits. Low pay, 1 week of vacation.

There's some merit here. We do use Time Doctor. How else could you run a 300-person digitally remote company? Agencies do track time, it's so we can understand our burn rates and know which accounts are being serviced too much and which accounts you're ignoring and need attention.

Pros

Remote work - that’s all no night differential pay

Cons

They will screencapture everything on your screen and will force you to brand yourself and your personal account with their brand. Extremely invasive.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We take feedback seriously and appreciate when former or current team members speak up. We use tracking tools to ensure accountability, protect client data, and maintain productivity standards in a fully remote environment. These tools are disclosed during the hiring process, and expectations are communicated clearly before employment begins. Regarding personal branding, no one is required to give up ownership of their private accounts. When we encourage team members to showcase their professional work, it is intended to support career growth and credibility in the ecommerce space, not to intrude on personal identity. We recognize that our performance standards and structure may not be the right fit for everyone. Our goal is to create a transparent, high-performance environment while continuously improving based on constructive input.
