Pros

The people were amazing -- best people I've ever worked with. Passionate, driven and cared a ton.

Cons

Difficult industry. It was hard to "win" for our clients. It was expensive to do what we did, so it was hard to make a winning equation.

Pros

They are talented people who are great at what they do. Everyone is very passionate about serving their clients. The culture is a very fun one. The 4 day work week is awesome! Every company should have that.

Cons

When I was there they were still trying to turn the corner from a technical SEO firm to an inbound marketing firm. I think they hired me to soon. Their sales process and their pricing was not solidified enough yet for me to be successful in my role for them.

Pros

Founding leadership was well-intentioned, and for a short while, they and a close-knit community of colleagues made this place stand out in the Indianapolis area. What once was a winning business model, could have seen long[er]-term success.

Cons

Teams of four agents can not possibly scale to the levels that were being required of them... especially in a push to break into the increasingly demanding enterprise market. Some contracts were obscenely written. Some decisions to let key staff go before a push for more work were questionable business decisions and ultimately... sad.
