Pros

Great co workers, get to work with creative individuals. We get invited a lot to outings and events which are fun perks to the job. You will learn a lot in this job.

Cons

With how demanding the industry is and how quickly our team is expected to turn around proposals, we are not given the technological resources to effectively produce the deliverables in a timely manner..we use such a manual and outdated process . You find yourself having to work evenings and weekend week after week to try to keep up. We are also short staffed and they won’t hire in certain departments despite everyone in that department drowning in work. The local level management try’s to support as much as possible but their hands are tied because ultimately the regional leadership who are the ones who call the shots are out of touch with what’s going on in all the regions they “oversee” and expect everyone to continue working like machines. What may work in one region or market, doesn’t always work for another.
