Pros

Free snacks, beer, wine (what agency doesn't provide this though). Nike as their main client (if you like working for that machine, and enjoy having to bend over backwards for creative that they themselves direct you to create). Dogs are allowed in the office.

Cons

Notice how all the "Positive" reviews are as of September 22nd or so? This is because our "President" sent out a company wide email asking (begging) us to write positive reviews about the agency. Think I'm joking? Don't make me post the full email... This place only cares about one thing, their bottom line, and looking cool. But don't be fooled, your workday, crea will suck. It will be filled with frustration, minimal creative freedom, horrible project management, a complete lack of leadership, and worst of all, lip-service about how they "care" about you, and how "awesome our work is". Pfffff. The work is almost all production-based, no matter who the client is. Straight up, real talk...this place is full of fraud's, especially the top leadership and owners. The amount of amazing talent that has come thru here and left within the past 2 years is unbelievable. Why? Because they burn the best and brightest out real fast, and won't let them do what they do best.

Pros

Pay is on the higher side but the lack of profit sharing is a big con for a company this size.

Cons

No profit sharing. Benefits could be more robust.
