Pros
There are some great people who work too hard to be here.
Cons
Just about everything else. There's no 401K, no structure, no growth potential, no flexibility, no HR. There is a lot of negativity and gossip spoken about everyone, including clients and reps which is very deflating and demotivating. Bigoted “jokes" or disparaging comments are made on a regular basis that make staff members feel extremely uncomfortable. Employees are also thought of as time thieves that takes advantage of the company. The president is tyrannical when it comes to hours. You must work 8:30-5:30 and have a 1-hour lunch break. If you take longer lunches, come in late, or leave early, expect to be treated passive aggressively. On the other hand, if you work hard and stay late, don't expect to be compensated or thanked. To make matters worse, an upper manager on the account side is underhanded and calculating. He complains constantly about how badly the agency is run. He will initiate closed door meetings in his office just to gossip about people at work under the guise of diplomacy and empathy. And he is not slow to throw anyone under the bus to make himself look better. This culture of negativity and gossip seeps into every facet of the company. It stifles creativity, productivity, growth and motivation. When you come into work already on edge for fear of being berated in front of your colleagues or being told that the client is going to fire the agency because of you, how are you supposed to be an effective employee? There probably aren't many reviews about Redroc because it's such a small agency that employees are afraid to speak out anonymously. But I think it's important that these issues be brought to light. Because nothing will change otherwise.
