Pluspunten
Lots of hands-on learning opportunities Fast paced Challenging/interesting roles and responsibilities Young workplace/staff Agile, open to ideas to improve operations, productivity, etc. and quick to make changes Freedom of arrival time and leaving time Little oversite, managing Easily take vacation or sick days Chill dress code Little face-to-face client interaction Remote work days 2x/mo Some talented people do pass through to work with If you're a grad looking to put something on your resume and use it as a stepping stone, coming in prepared to get in and get out, this is an okay place.
Minpunten
A disconnect between sales funnel and onboarding to execution Pressure to be available on nights and weekends Too much work, not enough staff Too much stress Too tight of deadlines Too vague contracts/SOWs Feels scammy - Not providing what was promised, using contract loopholes to calm upset/disappointed clients No pride in work because there's no time to do it to the best with limited time and resources Salaries not always commensurate with work/role No benefits Have to pay for parking Uneducated, unprofessional, demanding clients Don't treat freelancers well, sometimes not paying or paying extremely late Feeling that you're unappreciated, undervalued, easily replaceable, and dispensable. A blame the other employee environment because of such high stress & lack of time Lack of team feeling, no one wants to pick up the slack/help one another High turnover Unstable/seasonal sales resulting in insecure job feeling Unorganized client management Too much "get it done now", "need it now" attitude, This agency has lost of potential but is too concerned with making sales/closing deals instead of doing great work and making clients happy. Doesn't seem to care too much about freelancers, employees, or clients.
