Pros

Benefits. Salary is what's expected on the market.

Cons

Totally disorganized CEO who loves making simple things complicated. You'll be totally micro-managed and you'll have to create 100 spreadsheets to change a simple word on an ad. The CEO fires senior staff members by text messages. You'll be sold a big start-up when in reality the company can't even decide on a simple CRM. Absolutely ZERO work-life balance, you'll be harrassed on weekends for pitty things. Don't waste your time and pass.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Advertising professionals are more of a wildcard position because just as fast as they can make a big positive difference, misalignment in the work can unravel months of work in a specific direction. I won’t publicly discuss the circumstances of this termination. However, I will say that we never aim to terminate a new employment relationship so quickly and abruptly. I regret that we made this exception even once, as it made me realize we were not protected enough to avoid the kinds of risks that could endanger the work we’ve done with our team and for our clients who entrust us. While I am sorry to see that the end of your brief term caused negative feelings (nobody likes feeling rejected, especially advertising people who are actively running their own company their own way), I am certain than you are going to find a much better fit for your unique style work elsewhere. And I think you will do great while your own business continues to pick up. You are certainly a smart and talented dude. Thank you again for taking the time to write your candid thoughts in this online review. I wish you all the best and happiness in the next chapter of your life. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. You have my personal cell and I’m happy to speak to you any time. Regards, CEO

Pros

There are very few leaders who seek to support their teams and their people in ways that allow them to truly grow as individuals. To simply be a leader is one thing but to actually lead is an entirely different beast and Jordan is one of those who seeks, with limitless passion, to lead with empathy, dignity, honor, compassion, and a raw curiosity that is nothing short of inspirational. When he asks his team how they are doing, he means it. When he provides guidance, he sees what you are capable of, and if you have a lower opinion of yourself than what is possible, you’ll be challenged to rise and become the best version of yourself. If that’s not absolute perfection, then I don’t know what is.

Cons

If you’re looking for the easy road where it’s clock-in/clock-out and no one pays attention to what you’re doing…you probably won’t like it here.

Thank you so much for your review! I feel honored to serve as the leader of the company to have treated you this way. This is always what I'd hoped it could be, and I feel it's my duty to see each individual for their strengths and not let them stop believing in themselves. I agree that there are people who should not work here because they really do want to have more control and autonomy where they aren't checked in with. It doesn't make the person bad, but it can turn into a bad situation if we don't recognize it early, or if we don't keep making strides in a more selective recruiting process. Thank you for offering your honest feedback, and thank you for being with us!! Warm Regards, Jordan, CEO

Pros

can't really think of any

Cons

Can't think of any positive points. Unless you like a toxic work environment, extra hours and bad ownership.
