Do yourself a favor and don't work here

Pros

There are a few really great people that work at FKQ.

Cons

Heavy micromanagement. There's no new employee onboarding process. Collaboration is almost discouraged. They'll hire you for your expertise, but then not take any input into consideration. I was misled from the beginning as to what the role was going to entail. Leadership is accusatory, unknowledgeable, and there's a whole family dynamic to tip-toe around. There's no process, no documentation of best practices, and no priority placed on work-life balance. It's a very dismal place to work. There were people literally crying due to being overworked and micromanaged. If you value your own mental well-being you'll work somewhere else.

An Honest Review

Pros

I currently work at FKQ full-time— about to enter my 3rd month of employment with the agency. Full disclosure, after I was officially offered the position I was a little hesitant after reading the Glassdoor reviews. So now that I’m here, I feel it’s worthwhile to share insights from my experience. My deciding factor came down to really jiving with my FKQ team members who I met during the interview process. I can say openly and honestly that my experience here thus far has been really positive. I feel I’m in an environment where I can grow and feel challenged (in a good way). I am looking forward to a long future at FKQ! Pros- Good work/life balance, opportunity for growth within the agency and approachable management

Cons

I can’t really think of any off the top of my head… but in order to thrive here, you need to be a self-starter, have good time management habits and MOST IMPORTANTLY communication skills.
