Pros

Fun location. Always something going on in the area. Walnut Wednesday.

Cons

Mainly working for one client. No real "outside of the box" thinking. CEO way too controlling. I would advise actual designers to steer clear of this company. Employee turnover rate is high. Benefits are nonexistent.

Pros

Great team at 42connect with each person an expert in their field. Great communication across verticals and the team provides comprehensive overall solutions to the clients. Honest and open communication is a core value of the team at 42connect. Excellent leadership with Brian, that provides a system for all to grow and keep learning. Worked with 42connect for nearly 6 years and they were the best agency I've been with. Pure Results-oriented work with a collaborative mindset

Cons

Was very happy with my role & had to leave for personal reasons. Would strongly recommend working with Brian and the team at 42connect.

Pros

The designers, developers, project managers, and owners are very passionate about what they do and it shows in their work. As a small digital agency, they have the ability to be much more streamlined when it comes to the delivery of projects and getting things done on time and on budget. They also swing high when it comes to the clients they work with, including some big names like Moen and Nestle. Client Referrals and word of mouth have also been a big force as it relates to new business. To add, 42connect is not limited to just working with companies here in Ohio and the Midwest, but with companies across the country as well. Offices are located right in the heart of Cleveland with many places to walk to for breakfast, lunch and even Happy Hour. A parking pass is even provided which gives you access to a covered garage so you avoid your car getting ticketed, towed or damaged. As well as access to a gym inside the building. Management is also very flexible with employee hours and allow them to work from home or off-site as long as they hit their goals.

Cons

Having a self-starter mindset going into this company is critical since there are not a whole lot of processes and training that is provided when you begin. There are also days where you may work longer hours than usual to keep up with the project work that is demanded by clients.
