To Call It a Raging Dumpster Fire Would Be Kind - Strategist ROI Revolution Employee Review

ROI has an incredibly positive and supportive culture. Across every team I’ve worked with, people are consistently kind, intelligent, collaborative, and genuinely invested in helping each other succeed. The level of talent across the organization is motivating because you’re surrounded by experts who care deeply about producing great work. Leadership is exceptionally transparent and thoughtful. There’s a strong level of communication and clarity around company goals, decisions, and expectations, which creates a lot of trust across the organization. The company also places a strong emphasis on growth and development. We have a dedicated Client Services Learning & Development Manager who creates trainings based on current trends in the digital marketing space and real challenges teams are actively navigating, which makes the learning opportunities feel relevant and practical. Work life balance is another major positive. Employees start with four weeks of PTO, which increases with tenure, and the company has core working hours from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Most teams typically work around 40 to 45 hours per week. The hybrid schedule is also a great benefit. Teams are in office 2 to 3 days a week, which allows for collaboration and relationship building while still offering flexibility to work remotely. The office environment has great energy, and there are plenty of opportunities to connect with coworkers through weekly catered lunches, happy hours, and team events.

The company hires exceptionally strong talent, which creates a high standard of excellence and accountability across teams. The environment is fast paced, with an expectation that employees take ownership, stay proactive, and consistently produce high quality work. It’s great for individuals who thrive in collaborative, high performing environments, but it may feel challenging for those who prefer a slower pace or need more structure around prioritization and time management.

Working at ROI Revolution has many positives, particularly the culture of collaboration. You never feel like you’re on an island because there is always excellent brainstorming and resource support available. The peer-to-peer support is outstanding, and it is incredibly motivating to work alongside fellow problem-solvers who share a consistent drive to deliver excellent work for our clients. Additionally, despite being an agency, the work-life balance here is actually been really wonderful the last several years - I think this is largely due to improvements in how client portfolios and team sizes are set. I also have to shout out our admin team for providing wonderful office perks, and our HR team, who are incredibly supportive, accessible, and genuinely helpful.

Agency life naturally comes with occasional high-pressure periods, and the intensity can vary depending on the client and how they're performing. At times, some members of Senior Leadership may get more directly involved with specific accounts, which can create extra urgency or require some additional lift from the team. That said, the support and collaboration across the organization helps those moments feel manageable.
