Horrible place to work. Can't wait to get paroled.

Pros

Someday I will get fired and get unemployment or find another job. Unfortunately, I can't find anything local because Mudd will sue you for getting a job within a 100 mile radius of Cedar Falls. No business in the Cedar Valley will touch you because they also threaten to sue if they hire you.

Cons

Fake, low pay, crazy family, no raises, lots of yelling at employees.

Pros

Co-workers, fast paced, challenging, never a dull moment. Weekends off. Paid time off. 401k. I look forward to leaving and going home every night at 5-6.

Cons

The only position valued is sales. Management does not care about support staff (the people that actually make things happen). They will constantly change your pay making it difficult to plan accordingly. You’re a commissioned account manager making a whole half a percent on transactional jobs and a whole one percent on agency accounts (you won’t get any agency accounts) . You’ll get approximately zero training. You won’t get rich being an account manager. You’ll survive...but that’s about it. You’ll spend your days and nights completely stressed and never feeling like you’re doing a good job. You won’t get rewarded for doing a good job....someone else will get the credit you deserve 99% of the time. To call this place an advertising agency is disingenuous. They are a telemarketing company who’s primary mission is to SELL SOMETHING and it doesn’t matter if what they sell is detrimental or of little actual marketing value to the client. Real ad agencies don’t operate like this place does.

We are very sorry you feel like this. We want all of our employees to feel valued and recognized. When our employees have struggles or ideas, we encourage them to share those with their manager or HR so we can help right away.

Pros

-the cafeteria and gym are nice perks, and all your coworkers are as miserable as you are.... misery loves company.

Cons

Micromanagement. They lie to you and your dealers. They do not care about the relationships they build with clients, as long as they are getting paid. The coworkers that you do work with are so mean and rude. If you don’t share the same beliefs as them politically, religiously or even on certain topics they will call you out. They will take it to social media. It’s like being in middle school all over. Your ‘manager’ also has their own territory to call on, so don’t expect much help here. Your ‘manager’ could also be a useless, catty, drama filled person as well. Shared personal information about everyone with everyone else, including sickness, deaths and pay. HR is never in office and is pretty much useless. They have a habit for not paying people their last commissions which is “normal” as put. They do not have respect for you, especially if you leave. 9/10 they will walk you out when you put your notice in. You are simply just a number to them. Chris Mudd cares nothing but making more money. Jim Mudd Jr is so disconnected from the business.
