Pros

great learning opportunity if you want to do all thing digital ads

Cons

- high stress, low morale - time tracking every tiny little detail (you don't even get paid for your bathroom breaks. I once got in trouble because I spent 10 minutes writing an email to a client and my supervisor thought it should've only taken 5. Regularly working 50+ hours a week, but because of how they track time, it shows only 37-40 hours.) - they say they track time to help estimate time allotments for tasks, but when the entire team regularly doubles the estimated time for a task, instead of increased estimated time for work load distribution, the employees simply get in trouble and are told to do better and be faster. - I disclosed that I couldn't come into office one day because of a a specific disability, and my manager straight said she had the disability too, and didn't have the issue coming in like I did, so she didn't understand. - way behind the times in terms of benefits. Only 8 days PTO to start out. - overall, I do not recommend. Once I left, I found out 5 more people followed me out within a month, and then 3 more after that. The company is roughly 20-25 people max.

Pros

- Casual work environment with hybrid/remote flexibility. - Teammates are generally kind, collaborative, and committed to doing quality work for clients. - There’s a strong emphasis on professional development. People are encouraged to expand their skillsets across different areas of marketing, and there are good opportunities to build strong professional relationships, with clients and internally. - Processes are well documented and organized, for the most part.

Cons

- Workloads are extremely overwhelming, and managing your workload quickly becomes a significant challenge. Expectations are often unrealistic, with tight deadlines and expedited turnarounds becoming the norm — despite repeated feedback from employees about capacity and burnout. - There’s a noticeable imbalance in oversight: day to day tasks are often micromanaged, while larger, more strategic projects often lack necessary support or direction. - Time tracking is meticulous, heavily monitored, and often questioned in ways that can feel discouraging or overly punitive rather than constructive. - Incoming client requests are often unstructured, and without dedicated account managers, it’s difficult to prioritize effectively — especially when everything is framed as high priority. - CEO feels disconnected from the reality of the team’s workload and day to day challenges.
