Pros

Started off awesome with a fun culture and “work hard play hard” mindset.

Cons

Devolved into a mess of poor communication and leadership that was cliquey and often incompetent. All the politics and petty drama of a larger agency without the pay, benefits, structure or accountability of one.

Pros

You were provided with a company laptop, work from home capabilities on Fridays, health insurance was great once it started being offered. There used to be quite an awesome team vibe.

Cons

Where to begin: 1. Possibly the worst "leadership team" ever put together. Cannot stress how poorly things got once leadership was established. Founder liked to blame "old" employees for not being able to handle change as the company grew, but really, the issues revolved around how terrible the leadership team was. Favoritism runs rampant, and anyone who questions ANYTHING is a problem. 2. Anyone who made MILO a great place to work at either quit or was fired 3. Communication issues were immense. Leadership rarely communicated with team members and was often unable to handle issues when they did come up. No one took responsibility for anything, just passed around the blame on team members, partner agencies, literally anyone else. 4. Salaries were inconsistent and new hires and less experienced workers were brought in at MUCH higher rates than those who had been there pretty much from the start. 5. Processes to ensure smooth work flow were never effectively put in place. 6. Too busy trying to be the "cool" agency. 7. Just stay away from this agency. It's not worth the stress and damage to your mental health.
