Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn about a new industry Company is Christian and Conservative, but does not shove that in employees faces, very understanding of Christian and non Christian employees. Its nice to work for a company where people don't mock my values. Good management. Every encounter I've had with the top people at corporate has been pleasant. They are all people I can respect. Good vision. The company has a vision that is easy to get on board with so the job isn't just a job. Good coworkers. I like the people I work with and its a pleasure to interact with them everyday.

Cons

Compensation is a little lower than my peers in similar positions No clear cut path for personal career growth within company that is not sales

Pros

Great supportive local environment, people called to work there to support the mission.

Cons

Corporate digital leadership is disjointed and systems are chaotic. Actual delivered campaigns are inevitably flawed and mis managed. Retaliatory, narcisstic, abusive corporate digital leadership. Constant systems changes and zero assistance in navigating. More and more digital agency and other jobs outsourced to Asia. Salespeople are exhausted and burned out by programs failing. Zero accountability taken by Ad Ops team for mistakes or extrene lag time in responses from internal automated systems. Salary cuts to 'help the company' plays on the mission minded employees, taking advantage of employees good intentions by underpaying them compared to industry. No 401K match.
