Pros
Neil Patel has a name that rings within the industry, and it's a bit of a head start in conversations with new clients or marketing peers. Also, the office is nice, although it's not a comfortable place to spend time which makes it not so much of a "pro"
Cons
The list is much longer than any employer should ever be able to accumulate, but the only relevant truth is this is not an ideal place to spend a short or extended portion of your career. - Nobody here listens. The people who are hand-selected by those hand-selected by Neil and the management team will never be able to listen to or take criticism. Your voice quite literally doesn't matter. - Don't ever want to do more, which is so backward. The vision painted when coming in is that there is collaboration and a self-starter mentality will be welcome, but if you ever try to rise above the box you've been placed in, be prepared for negativity and then retribution shortly thereafter. -There is an underlayer of an "it crew" mentality in this place that stinks. It's not about qualifications, or performance, it's all about who you know or who brought you in, and those people can do no wrong. They (management) will look directly past those that truly want to help take the company to the next level for those that they are comfortable with. - The work product suffers because so many are so overworked and unhappy. Clients consistently think they are going to get a "Neil Patel effort" and instead are getting executions that are being delivered by a crew that can't provide that (no fault of their own). -Silos galore. There is nothing about this company that feels connected or collaborative. I had college projects being done at the last second while all members were hungover from the night before which felt more coherent. - Lack of a clear vision. There's no doubt that the executive staff has a vision that they share behind closed amongst themselves, but to the worker bees, nothing of the sort is ever presented. It is to be considered your honor and privilege to make them money and build the business, but if you want to learn or share in the vision, you'll only get corporate-speak in quickly thrown-together meetings or emails to shoo you away.
