Pros

Pay is decent, u can work remote.

Cons

No real tech, no differing tech, no tech stack, our claim to fame is “white glove service”.... that’s doesn’t close deals... unrealistic expectations and knowledge about how to go after large accounts, only clients are tier 3 type clients. Management is at best of average intelligence, no real world use in terms of opening doors and helping to move the sale along, very micro managing.... and passive aggressive in their management style. Leadership is clueless on the business and being absolutely no value to the table. The growth strategy is to hire experienced sellers with their Rolodex and hope they can get them into doors where they had no previous success.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your time at Strategus. It is unfortunate that you did not have a great experience and we are sorry it did not work out, for either party. This is a very exciting time for Strategus as we continue to grow and achieve our goals as an innovation leader in the OTT/CTV advertising space. The leadership at Strategus is committed to helping each team member thrive, both professionally, and personally. It’s clear there were some gaps for you, but we are always looking for ways to improve. We appreciate the time you’ve taken to help us do so.

Risky move for seasoned vets

Pros

Great 6-figure base and comp plan Friendly coworkers Big boss likes to throw money around and is generous with random bonuses. They do an open book management style so the transparency of the business’ financials is interesting and it’s actually a great idea (guessing this helps create an image of transparency)

Cons

Don’t be fooled, this is just another OTT reseller, there is massive competition in the space and no competitive advantage here. You’re selling the same remnant, bottom of the barrel inventory as any other major advertising/OTT company. They claim to have exclusive access to premium inventory but they don’t, and they don’t do enough volume to make a difference in costs. If you know the space, you know the DSP they use. Either the marketing material (at the time) was full of misrepresentations or the management team didn’t understand the tech completely. The people running campaigns are incentivized to increase the company’s margin in a way that conflicts with client’s campaign success and goals. They hire seasoned sales people from TV for their existing relationships, but your educated clients will probably not renew with you after they see the inventory they received. The inbound pipeline is filtered by the sales manager who also sells, yep you guessed it, major conflict. So, don’t be surprised when he gives himself the best leads and closes the company’s biggest layups. At the time, the big boss split time with his other business, an ad agency. So he didn’t really know what was going on with Strategus.
