Pros

Working from home. That's it.

Cons

I was as an account coordinator, and immediately given my own accounts. This is great in theory, but when receiving no advice/guidance from the CEO, yet expected to produce immediate results - it is very daunting. 4 weeks into the job, after finally getting my footing and having successes in the position, I found out that a few accounts of another employee had wrapped up and terminated their contracts. I found this out on a Wednesday morning. Wednesday afternoon I receive a call from the CEO, telling me he is letting me go, effective immediately. None of the clients who terminated were mine. Effective immediately? No warning? No 2 weeks? Nothing? Further, he only offered to pay me THROUGH THAT DAY. When I asked for more - because that's what a decent business owner would offer - I was asked to sign a ridiculous nondisclosure agreement. I won't go into specifics, but the contract was over the top and utterly ridiculous. And I was asked to sign this in exchange for 2 extra days pay. 2 days. No thank you. I was treated horribly and excused like a child who had done something wrong. It was handled quite terribly. When I voiced my opinions about the situation, the CEO had the audacity to tell me I "might thank him" someday. Worst of all, he decided not to provide me a letter of recommendation simply because I voiced to him that I felt the situation was being handled poorly. He tried to manipulate me into apologizing by threatening to withhold the letter. I told him I could not apologize for feeling mistreated, and he decided not to send the letter. This company, and the CEO are a HACK. Do yourself a favor, and get involved in a company who does not treat it's employees like dirt.

Pros

The hands-on experience you gain here from day one is awesome. I started as an intern working on legit campaigns and became a full time account manager after a few months. There’s a lot of opportunity for professional growth and advancement. Also unlimited PTO is amazing.

Cons

Currently WFH only (if that’s a con for you)
