Pros

- Solid group of employees. Most are smart, hard-working and easy to get along with, both inside and outside of work. - You'll get experience. If you know very little about online marketing and digital ad stuff in general, it's a good place to cut your teeth. For a bit. - Job security. New business isn't a problem at all. Losing your position because the company loses clients is not something anyone has to worry about. That's a plus.

Cons

- Repetitive work. The vast, vast majority of the work concerns one industry. For some positions, this is OK. For others, much less so. - Low pay. I know of worse places but C-4 is on the low end of the scale, especially when benefits are taken into account. - Structure of the agency fee/chargeable services. I'm not going to get into real specifics, and it probably made some sense during the beginning, but it sure doesn't now. - Managerial stubbornness. Probably number one on my list. The way that departments are staffed is an issue. Setting reasonable client expectations is an issue. Delegating meaningful control is a major issue. There's a lot here. I won't get into all of it. - One of the other reviews mentioned that people who do good work and handle their part get more work loaded onto them. I found that to be very much true.

Pros

I will say this - You might be able to get some decent experience if you want to learn about online marketing. However, I don't believe that saying you worked at C-4 Analytics will get you any good jobs at any point. -The employees are great, with the exception of the two CEOs, in my opinion

Cons

-50-60 hour work-weeks - In my opinion, management expects this from everyone and if you want to have a work-life balance, they don't believe you should be there. Ridiculous. -CEOs - The biggest problem with this company are the two CEOs who, in my opinion, do not know how to manage. I felt that their behavior was often erratic, and their direction made no sense. I also witnessed them publically humiliate employees in front of the entire company. -Saugus is not Boston or anywhere T accessible. If you want to be next to Bernie and Phyls, across the street from the Kowloon, this is the place for you. - The clients - I think C-4 is a slave to its clients; management has no idea how to set expectations and because their clients are so demanding, it always seems like they are trying to save accounts instead of innovating. - I believe there's about a 30-40% employee turn-over in the company - It takes a couple months for employees to figure it out, and then they run. -I think 90% of their clients are car dealerships, which is very difficult because they tend to be a demanding bunch of people. -Very few benefits - They still don't offer health insurance. -low pay, little reward - in my experience, the pay was extremely low and I've heard the same from others. -Everything written above is entirely based on my opinions and my opinions only-
