Pros

CT is one of the best companies I worked for. Good compensation, benefits, and schedule.

Cons

Nothing I can say that's negative about the company. The only improvement I suggested has already been practiced.

Pros

I have been working at Coalition Technologies for nearly 3 years now. Firstly, if you want to work for a company where you can watch YouTube videos all day, remain stagnant in your career development and are happy to coast through the day not learning anything, then Coalition Technologies is not the place for you. If, however, you want to work in a fast paced environment, where no 2 days are the same, work with a great team and keep up-to-date with the latest marketing trends - then you will enjoy working here. The company is quickly expanding and with a policy of promoting within, there is opportunity for career advancement. Every employee is provided a career development plan with clear goals that they need to hit to receive increases in salary. If you put in the effort, you can advance quickly. I should know - I have received 4 salary increases and have been promoted to management within the 3 years I have been with the company. Also, the company provides profit share each month, where up to 50% of the company profits are shared with employees. Having been at the company for a while now, these payments can be quite generous. Retaining clients is extremely important to the company - without client retention, how can a company grow? Having read some of the reviews here that say there is micromanagement - I tend to disagree. As management, it's our job to ensure that our team members are performing high-quality work. The company focus is on providing consistent training for our team. Reviewing my teams work and providing training though screen share is vital to ensure that we are doing the best work we can for our clients. I have a great team and we all want to get the best results that we can. The company has great benefits as well - health, dental & life insurance, a fully stocked kitchen, team lunch on Fridays, profit share and gym reimbursement.

Cons

Working in digital marketing, the amount of work you can do on a clients campaign is infinite, and I have found that there are some days where I need to work a little more than I usually would to complete tasks. The company has created tools that help us manage our work flow and time management that have definitely helped with this.

Thanks for the positive, objective feedback. I'd double down on your comments about CT and its work place- We are growing both in client size and team size, and that means two things; lots of work for everyone, and lots of opportunity for advancement. We stress that we are looking for hard working, self-starters who are capable of managing their time and priorities effectively. We do have tools in place to provide a framework to identify priorities, identify mistakes, and ensure our clients are getting the full benefit of every dollar they're paying us. To some that reads micromanagement but that's usually people who are looking to work as being an extension of their personal time, and that often leads to the negative reviews we've had here. I believe that work is for work- if you want to spend the majority of your day on entertainment sites, Youtube, personal chat, or other activities unrelated to the work our clients are paying us for and we are in turn paying you for, don't apply. If you're excited about digital, whether web design or development or SEO or marketing, want to learn more about disparate industries, grow in your experience and professional expertise, can handle a full work day (shocking right) on task, then please do apply here! We have great benefits and a huge commitment to seeing our team members grow with us.

Pros

I've been with CT for close to one year, which I think is a fair amount of time to give an honest evaluation. Some of these reviews are pretty rough, but I can definitely validate that the positive reviews are not fake... Take mine for example :) Pros: - WORKING REMOTELY! The flexibility is probably my favorite thing about this job. I travel a lot so I am most appreciative to be able to work from wherever. - Work Culture. CT has managed to find some of the coolest, most knowledgeable and kind people to employ, and it just makes working that much better. The community is strong at CT. Everyone loves to lend a helping hand and they're all really amazing with creative feedback too (a big plus!) - Employee Appreciation. When you do a good job, you are handsomely rewarded at CT. While the job isn't always the easiest, it definitely pays off to know that people are watching (literally...thanks Time Doctor) and your hard work doesn't go unnoticed. -GROWTH. When a recruiter mentions opportunity for growth at CT, they aren't lying. As long as you remain focused on improving your overall skills on a constant basis (who doesn't want to do that?), staying invested in your role (whatever that may be), and bring new ideas to the table, the opportunity for growth is huge.

Cons

Cons: - Really long days (if you're on the east coast). Working 12-9pm isn't the most fun, but it's really not HORRIBLE if you factor in all the other cool perks of working remotely. - Understaffed. We've got a LOT of clients and a little team. It would be incredible to have a few more team members in each department. It would make everyone's jobs just a bit less stressful to have a smaller workload and more time to focus on the important items. - Communication can sometimes be an issue. When you work in a position that requires a really big team of people to come together to make magic happen (with a deadline attached), it can sometimes be difficult to get everyone on the same page. - The pay isn't the greatest to start, but as you grow and prove yourself to be an asset to the company, so does your paycheck.

Glad that we warranted a 5 star review for you! Hopefully we can not only keep that 5 star review but find a way to make employment at CT even better. We definitely value team members who are self starters and are eager to find ways to improve our services, even if that's not technically part of their job responsibilities. We hope that you feel incentivized and motivated to continue to do that, year in and year out. I'm hoping you've seen that with our expanded recruiting team, we're able to bring in more people, faster to support you through prompt communication and greater availability. Thanks again! Jordan B. President and COO
