Best Agency to Work For

Pros

I have been working for Rivers Agency for about six years now and have loved every second. A lot has changed over the years; when I first started with Rivers we had no benefits. Now, I have more amenities and benefits than I could dream of! As an employee, I get health insurance, life insurance, disability insurance, dental and vision. Parking is taken care of, there is a gym on-site and Rivers has sent me to the absolute best SEO conferences! What more could you ask for?

Cons

I honestly can't think of any. Anyone who gets the opportunity to work at Rivers Agency should be ecstatic!

Pros

I have been with Rivers Agency for over 10 years now and have been part of its growth from a small scrappy team of dedicated professionals to the large agency it is today. In that time, my own skills have also grown and improved immeasurably with each new project and client. I can count the number of boring days on one hand; there is always something new to learn or tackle. Management has always had great ambition and success getting and retaining new clients and exciting projects. Along with a strong core team, this has allowed the agency to grow into the powerhouse it is today with great employees, great benefits, great clients, and a great location. Despite all the growth, management has never lost the care for employees or the family feel. Management has always been very responsive to personal concerns, life commitments, and the needs of employees. Hours can be flexible around the realities of life and the benefits package continues to improve year after year. Perks such as free parking, many catered lunches, and a beautiful office come with the job. I have enjoyed teaching new team members as they come on board and learning from them as well. Employees are encouraged to get certifications, lead classes, attend conferences, and take leadership roles. You will not lack for opportunity, camaraderie, or exciting projects here.

Cons

You'll need to be comfortable managing personal deadlines and juggling projects in a fast paced environment. However, I don't think this is significantly different from any other busy agencies you'll find.

Pros

I started working with Rivers Agency back in 2004 as a freelancer on a major website project. My freelance work turned into a full-time position 5 years ago and I am still here enjoying the fast pace and excitement that each day brings. The team is very talented and the clients are also amazing here at Rivers. Our CEO and all of our Directors are committed to improving everyday. They respond to all requests for training and also incorporated excellent benefits package 3 years ago. We have grown a lot and changed a lot and these are consistently the best people that I have ever worked with. Having come from both corporate and University positions I can clearly see the open style of management and lack of micromanagement that some fresh out of college folks only learn and see with experience. I have a lot of opportunity to lead projects and help junior people learn. Teaching teammates is a big Rivers is an amazing place to be (office is a beautiful space too!) and I enjoy it every day.

Cons

Nothing negative to say. Maybe the fast pace, but that could be a positive as well for someone like me.
