Pros

Great training. I really enjoyed the culture, benefits, and the people I worked with. I had excellent supervisors and for a while, was really proud of the work I was able to do and the clients I was able to work with.

Cons

A lot of scaling and changes occurred in the last 6 months or so that I worked there. The size of the company exploded from around 80 or so, up to 250. The focus shifted towards scaling the quantity of work over the prior focus on the quality of work. For me, it became an issue of differing values, and was no longer a good fit.

We’re glad to hear that you had a positive experience with our training, culture, benefits, and, most importantly, the people you worked alongside. Building strong teams and providing meaningful development opportunities are priorities for us, so it’s encouraging to know that came through during your time here. We’re especially pleased that you felt proud of your work and the clients you supported. We also appreciate your candid perspective on the changes you experienced. Over the past few years, we’ve gone through a period of significant growth, including multiple integrations with other organizations, and we recognize that this level of scaling can create challenges and shifts that don’t resonate with everyone.

That said, maintaining the right balance between scaling and quality is something we continuously evaluate and refine, and feedback like yours is an important part of that process. We understand that periods of rapid change can affect alignment, and we respect your decision to seek an environment that better matches your values.

Pros

Great client facing experience. All of my clients and coworkers were extremely friendly and easy to work with.

Cons

Not a lot of opportunities to actually learn Paid Media skills and current best practices from other paid media employees. Super siloed in your role.
