Pros

Directive is the real deal and helps me become a better version of my professional self. Senior leadership is amazing, all full-time employees start at a $70k salary, fully remote (Even before covid), unlimited PTO, 401K match and full benefits! A lot of areas for growth, and you can even pitch a completely new position if you see the need. You get to work with the best marketers out there and you actually have say, all ideas are heard and actually acted upon. I've personally seen the CEO turn away millions in revenue because he didn't want to overwork the team. That is unheard of in the agency world (Really any world).

Cons

Directive went from 40 employees to 130 in less than 7 months. The growing pains have been real but leadership really does care and they'll get through it.
