Pros
Working from home. Few really smart, lovely co-workers.
Cons
Media Connect Partners, or MCP as I will henceforth refer to them, is a social media company based out of Charlotte, NC, but has "satellite offices" around the country and world. Or just India and South Africa. You can Google them. MCP are global now, so to speak. Here are the cons: - Evangelical Christian client base. This might scare some people off if you're not religious, but most of the work is "cut and paste" from books and management of visual assets from photo stock companies. Yes, that's considered social media. - Most of their employees (one manager included) have no social media experience prior to employment. These employees are then thrown to the wolves as they are handed large clients while they are still on-boarding instead of training and are then summarily fired for their seeming ineptitude when things don't work. Not professional or ethical of MCP. - MCP's leadership aren't leaders. They're just people thrust into these roles with limited to no management experience, even going so far as to say they don't know how to handle particular employees. Instead of working through difficult situations, due to the layout of the HR department, which isn't in-house as it were, answers have to come through the CEO, Brian Boyd, who is often too busy to help. - Benefits? Don't bother. Got a spouse with decent insurance? I hope so. Stick with that or be stuck with an $80 a month health debit card. Good luck. - Are you entry level and want to learn from social media pros? This isn't the place. You'd be better off in a large city like New York learning at a boutique or start-up with clout.
