One of the best professional experiences of my career
Pros
I was offered a dream job outside of corporate PR and it was still a difficult decision to take it, because I liked working at Beckerman so much. It is a really wonderful place to work. There is an emphasis on hiring people who fit in with the company culture. Beckerman employees work hard, putting in long hours when necessary, but are also a friendly, positive group of people who enjoy socializing with each other. Simply put, this isn't a place for a corporate robot. Interns are paid, and great interns are often hired as full-time entry level staff. Upper level employees take an interest in mentoring younger staff. Compensation is fair, and PTO is generous.
Cons
More can be done to encourage company-wide knowledge about the client work being performed in other practice groups.
