Pros

The "Work Hard, Play Hard" motto is spot on. The company has worked extremely hard in the past 20+ years to get where they are, but they also take time to enjoy their accomplishments. Company perks include outings such as Brewer Games, Happy Hours, Summer Outings, Lunches, etc.. The fun-loving environment, also includes "bring your dog to work day" on particular Fridays, which is appreciated by many employees. Besides being named one of "Milwaukee's Coolest Offices" in 2014, there always seems to be a strong sense of team. All departments work well together to collaborate on projects, client needs and ideation, providing a strong backbone for the corporate headquarters in New Berlin and which has expanded globally. Overall, an excellent company to work for, as long as you're putting in the hours to get your part done. Would highly recommend the company to friends/family.

Cons

Very little to say concerning negatives of the company or atmosphere. It would be wonderful if the salary/benefits matched a bit closer to other marketing agencies in the Greater Milwaukee Area, as most people find themselves here for the environment, rather than the pay.

Pros

I've really enjoyed working at GMR. I have worked in three different departments over nearly 3 years. GMR works with some of the biggest brands and creates cutting edge experiential marketing programs. My favorite part is the culture, it is like no other corporate environment you will find. They have company outings and live bands come play during happy hours throughout the year. The perks are really great overall. Plenty of vacation time considering we get holidays off and a week between Christmas and New Years. The benefits are great and affordable.

Cons

One thing that surprises me is how each department doesn't know the work the other is doing.

Thanks for the feedback! I have to say that I enjoyed my first holiday break a ton this December/January. Don't hesitate to bring up any ideas on how we can educate the other departments about what you do and make sure you grab any opportunity to learn more about the other groups. Every department here does really interesting work, even if you don't hear about it often sometimes. Good feedback for me to bring up to others. Thanks!
