Pros

-You have the opportunity to make a lot of friends to hang out with, and that will understand the BS you put up with on a daily basis. The bright side of the personality that IG looks for, you end up working with a lot of cool people that have similar interests, etc. -If you've ever wanted to be a part of a cult, look no further. -If you like drinking and partying like you're still in college, this is the place for you!

Cons

-40 hours a week? Try closer to 50+, you don't get paid extra for hours worked outside of 8-5 either. -They try to shove this mentality of how much they care about their "people" down your throats and how we're all a family. But the reality is that as soon as you're out of there, they couldn't care less. -Be prepared to be looked down upon (and talked poorly about/or "confronted") if you don't wear a full faced of make up, 4 inch heels and dress to the nines every single day. -If management doesn't like you, they'll force you into being miserable or quitting by not allowing you to be "client-facing" and encouraging you to "go the pro route" (pro recruiter instead of account manager).. Recruiting for them sucks so much that most people quit once they realize there's no potential there. -Anxiety and stress shoved down your throat 24/7 about things you can't control or are forced to handle because account managers are too lazy to handle it themselves i.e. firing a contractor in the middle of your weekend. - Working yourself to the point of having a mental breakdown, is pretty much encouraged! I hope you like crying in the bathroom. -Remember those mean girls in high school that were shallow, materialistic and two faced? This is where they get hired! -The pay is awful.

Pros

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Cons

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
