I manage by intimidation - Account Executive Gigunda Group Employee Review

Clients, benefits, compensation, culture, office environment, end of year bonus and profit share etc. But the best pro is the work, especially when it's work that makes a difference. I was recently with the Duracell PowerForward team that deployed to Puerto Rico shortly after Hurricane Maria and it was an honor to serve the residents of Puerto Rico.

It's a company that doesn't quit, no matter the ask, and with that hours can run long to get the job done for clients. As a reward, company offers ample time off (6 weeks) plus "Summer Friday" hours every Friday allowing an early start to the weekend for a bit of work / life balance.

Gigunda Group is a collection of interesting, creative, and passionate people who are driven to create jaw-dropping ideas and activations. Better still, they actually like and care about each other, which has a positive effect on the workplace atmosphere. The office is vibrant, fun, and inspiring. Gigunda's employees are driven to be the best they can be with each other and in their work. Good isn't good enough at Gigunda; everyone wants to find ways to do/be better. The company offers very competitive salaries along with truly incredible employee benefits (including 31 vacation days). Best of all, the company encourages employees to say what they think to improve programs, processes, and overall morale. This is easily the best company that I have ever worked for. People at Gigunda are most passionate about the disaster relief programs, and are attracted to like-minded companies and future employees. This is a group of people who want to be different and to make a difference... for the good.

Gigunda is moving to Portsmouth (which is actually a very good thing...the entire company will be in one building, on the Pease runway, ready to come to the rescue for future disaster relief). There has been some employment turnover associated with the transition which has caused some amount of stress to the remaining employees.
