Pros

Very attractive young staff, makes it easier to work long hours Good Benefits Great perks if you hit your sales goals as an account manager

Cons

The main issue is targeting talent. Many strong recruiters are often not given the chance to advance to Account Management because Senior level brass say "they dont fit what we are looking for". In IGI terms, that means you are not a Barbie Girl or not Johnny Salesman. Oftentimes appointed office sales managers are very inexperienced, most were strong on-the-rise salespeople pushed to management with no proven leadership qualities, lacking the ability to motivate team members and get junior staff to trust upper level employees.

Pros

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Cons

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
