Sales-driven culture

Pros

Opportunity to work with large brands across different industries, flexibility, learning and growth opportunities

Cons

Sales-driven culture that focuses only revenue regardless of how it is obtained. Little to no collaboration as a result of a constant pursuit of new revenue. This pits departments and employees against each other.

Pros

Nice perks, now and then. Happy hrs, and company's parties are usually enjoyable.

Cons

Not a place for creative people. Despite the "tour" of the "creative" team you will be overworked and forced to design under the very corporate umbrella. Best of all you have to do it all in PowerPoint!

Pros

Great internship to full time pipeline when you prioritize quality performance over just getting hired. Digital practice is growing.

Cons

Career pathing can be tough, but not impossible
