Pros

Good benefits. Work from home friendly when needed.

Cons

No matter what experience or perspective you bring to this company, they will make you feel like an imbecile who can't possibly add value. The head of this company is an ego maniac that believes you can only do it his way if you are going to do it the "right" way. Literally, he says that- "just do it my way word for word" and then you have to pass some "test" to sell their products- and memorize the deck verbatim. Really? I understand there is new management in the house so maybe things have changed. I know they fired every legacy sales person that built the company, and then got into legal situations with almost every employee who either opted to leave or they asked to leave. This is what ego driven executives do to make themselves feel powerful when good people leave. Most suspect they eliminated people because of their higher salaries (again, after many successful years), and the "new" guys just thought they could do better. Seriously, they are a small player with a grandiose idea that their digital platform is "revolutionary"-- it's not. Most clients don't get the results they are sold. the technology behind everything is barely functional, and hardly cutting edge. Trying to manage work there is a complete nightmare- constant turn over and egos in the way of doing the right thing for clients.

Pros

I've been with MNG for many years. I rated the company a 5. Not because we're perfect, but because we're doing everything right to strive for perfection. We have a new CEO (Stephen Ross) who is heavily involved in our day-to-day business. He's hired new talent - people who are truly industry experts and tirelessly work towards improving process, driving INNOVATION and maintaining a strong client focus. This is truly is a fun place to work, where your efforts are appreciated and recognized.

Cons

With new leadership comes turnover and that's always unfortunate. However, we've filled vacancies with talented new people and we're continuing to hire. I'm truly excited for the growth and success of this organization!

Pros

I am fortunate to work with a lot of people are dedicated and who take their work seriously. I can balance my work and personal commitments for the majority of the time due good organization and support of my manager and team. The work I do is very specialized and there are peak times of the year based on projects, but I am supported to do the job they hired me to do. I work pretty standard days, and extra time when needed - which I do sometimes on my own accord too. I can see the company is growing and enjoy being able to contribute my part.

Cons

I've worked for other companies and have had both good and bad experiences. Not everyone who sits around me has experienced what I have, and they might decide their job is just not a fit for them and that's okay. We are growing and there are growing pains to be expected. No company has it 100% figured out, but we are definitely moving in the right direction.
