Pros

Downtown Boulder is great. Many of the people are great to be around. Great on the surface to have on a resume.

Cons

Pretty much everything else. Mediocre work. It's a wonder clients continue to hire SRG. Zero regard for employee quality of life, COMPLETE dishonesty and NO trust amongst employees and leadership. You do not feel looked after (unless you are a part of the "in-group" of favorite or are a partner. The most ineffective, self-serving, insecure leadership I have ever experienced. No loyalty. "If you want to leave go ahead" -- no attempt to retain or value employees, especially junior employees.

No Accountability

Pros

The people are friendly and it is generally fun to go into work every day.

Cons

Severely lacking direction. No accountability and a reluctance to change holds everybody back. Lacking the basic processes and infrastructure that make an agency successful. Recent leadership change has only made previous issues worse. Certain "favorites" will continue to rise while others are stuck because they don't play the politics game. It doesn't matter if you show up to a quarter of the groups you're supposed to, blow project money on personal items, or travel for all of the "glam" trips then push the actual work on to others, as long as you suck up to the right people. Hemorrhages extremely talented mid-level employees who aren't given the opportunity to learn or grow past a certain point. Senior leadership are threatened by those who may have better ideas than them, and will be happy to hold you back because of it.

Sterling-Rice Response

We're sorry we are not meeting your expectations. We value all feedback and encourage you to meet with your manager or SRG HR to discuss your concerns in person. Any misappropriation of budget is a clear violation of our employee agreement and something SRG does not tolerate. Please report any suspected violations internally, so that we’re able to conduct a proper investigation.

Pros

Most of the people are kind and fun to be around. Great incentives for healthy lifestyle and lots and lots of free food!

Cons

Management is so afraid of change that employees are held back. Company culture is a term used to keep company from moving forward. Good work isn't praised, rather safe and sellable work is. Current CEO is trying best to harbor change, but is being fought tooth and nail by senior management.
