Pros

Coming from a large multi-media company, its a breathe of fresh air to be in a hardworking start-up environment and to see the work you do come into frution. My manager has pushed me to grow both professionally and personally. The main reason I took this job was because I saw potential in the company and in the role. It's all about what you make of it, your mindset and what you make use of your time. If you're here to grow, work hard. and take your job seriously then its the right place for you. The door is open to talk to any of the execs at any time. It makes such a difference in being able to have access for one on one conversation and feedback on your experience here. They've invested their time and energy into this company, which is why it continues to grow into the brand that it is today. The employees here are supportive and collaborative as most of our work cross-departments. Culture is inclusive and creative with lots of fun events and gatherings.

Cons

Working in media is a big challenge so occasionally its can be hard to find the work/life balance if you don't organzine accordingly. Parking isn't available however there is commuter benefits to use for public transportation or uber/lyft pool which is a good alternative.

Pros

The health insurance wasn't a nightmare to navigate.

Cons

Blavity's micromanagement was absolutely suffocating. I literally could not send a client email without someone questioning my word choice or demanding to know why I included that person on the thread. Every single decision got routed through some approval chain and nobody would even explain why they said no, just "not approved" and silence. I started to feel like my manager was waiting for me to fail, like the hiring process was a mistake and now I had to prove myself every single day all over again. By my third month there I completely stopped suggesting anything because every idea got was the kind of slow trust erosion where you don't notice it happening until you realize you've already mentally checked out.
