Unbelievable Experience and First Place to Work - Program Strategist Youth Marketing Connection Employee Review

WFH, competitive salary, great coworkers

I don't have any cons to report.

Supportive Team Culture: One of the biggest highlights was the incredibly supportive, collaborative, and welcoming team. I felt valued, encouraged, and trusted throughout the internship. Hands-On Experience: I was given meaningful tasks and responsibilities, especially on accounts like Maybelline and Cécred, which made me feel like a real contributor—not just an intern. Exposure to Variety: The fast-paced agency environment meant every day felt different. Working across multiple brand accounts kept things fresh and exciting. Opportunities for Initiative: I appreciated the ability to express interest in specific projects. My manager, Lexi, always encouraged me to explore what I was curious about, which led to deeper learning and more tailored experiences. Confidence-Building: Presenting, interviewing, and taking ownership of projects significantly boosted my confidence and professional growth.

Not-Quite-Cons (aka Learning Opportunities): I didn’t get to sit in on many client calls due to scheduling, but even without that, I gained a strong understanding of how YMC manages client relationships through internal discussions, prep work, and campaign execution. And honestly, the biggest con is that I don’t want it to end. I truly wish I could stay on with this team and this incredible company forever. I’ve learned so much, felt deeply supported, and had the most amazing, fulfilling experience.
