Pros

Training C-4 has an incredible training program, most companies don’t offer the level of training C-4 does. There are also opportunities to improve skills essential in business (professional drafting, public speaking, crafting presentations). Teamwork My team was truly collaborative and everyone helped each other. I can’t speak to other teams but when someone would pack up for the day they’d ask if anyone needs help and I’ve seen team members sit back down and turn on their computer to help out. Pay I was paid fairly. Other Pros - Beer last hour of the day on Friday, along with games with prizes - Company provided food on Wednesdays - Upward mobility, a lot of people get promoted Working here didn’t make sense for me anymore, but many people have succeeded and are growing.

Cons

Burnout Biggest con is the burnout. I’ve talked to employee’s who told me they had anxiety attacks. Expect to come in early and leave late and still have a load of work every day. There is a high turnover and it’s never addressed, why is everyone leaving? What can we do for employees so they know we support them and understand their frustrations. I do think working here is better suited for people who are straight out of college and starting their careers. I gave the rating a 3/5 because at times I felt I was treated very unfairly and felt constantly scrutinized. However, I did not leave for those reasons.

Pros

By far the best part of C-4 is the people, as many of the other reviews state. You never have to worry about asking someone for help or advice as almost everyone is friendly, helpful, and insightful across all teams (account management, social, creative, and programmatic). Another major pro of working at C-4 is the experience that you gain. From Google Analytics to AdWords to reporting tools and client communication skills you will master a slew of programs and abilities that will make you extremely valuable to multiple employers.

Cons

One major con is the pay, which is low, even for the advertising industry. Having such a low salary makes it difficult to stay loyal to the company when working full time barely pays well enough to make rent/ mortgage each month. Unless you prove yourself by working hard and get on the right people's side your salary bump when you do get promoted will not make much of a difference. In addition to the low salary, those in the executive suite are very out-of-touch with the rest of the company. They always ask the account management team for referrals from existing clients, but then give the AM a hard time and will often low-ball when compensation time rolls around. Finally, there is a major problem with clients saying "jump" and the company asking "how high?" Client retention is obviously important, but management will often ask AMs to go to extreme lengths to please a client, often to the point where it has negative connotations on existing, happy clients because the goals of the happy clients have to be pushed to the side to make way for the angry client.

Pros

If you have the chops and the work ethic, C-4 provides you with the chance to shine. The agency promotes from within and rewards excellence. The account directors all came from the account manager ranks. The team at C-4 and the results they deliver are amazing. You determine your own success.

Cons

Everyone says that they want to work for a fast-paced, growing digital agency with dozens of awards to its name. You asked for it, you got it. The work is hard. There are tight deadlines. The challenge is real. As above, the account directors all came from the account manager ranks. The team at C-4 and the results they deliver are amazing. You determine your own success.
