Campaign Manager- RUN AWAY!

Anonymous employee

Pros

Free snacks and coffee in the kitchen, monthly catered lunch, summer outings, christmas parties

Cons

Management is a complete joke, they only promote people they like and not based on their ability to manage or experience. Campaign Managers are working ALL the time, I mean holidays, on your PTO, overtime and most weekends. The overtime is not compensated for since you are on a yearly salary. Seriously say goodbye to your personal life since you will be slaving away at this dead end job.

Pros

-The company is definitely moving in the right direction in gaining their own traction in the Mobile and Video ad space, as well as Programmatic offerings. -The culture is great and very family oriented and always have employee lunches -Very casual work environment (listen to music all day, walk around the open office and speak to anyone anytime, free snack galore, 2 big screen TV's in both kitchens to take a much needed break any time)

Cons

When you occupy certain positions (ie Camapign Manager) you will not have any time for family or friends. Because the internet is 24/7 and this is an internet advertising network, you HAVE to work ALL the time. Whether it's a weekend, holiday (Christmas Thanksgiving, Easter, etc.) you always need to have your computer with you to manage your campaigns. If you are a younger contributor without a family and are able to get a decent salary negotiated, it's a great place. Just be prepared to work constantly if you go there as a Campaign Manager. All other positions have a great work/life balance.

Pros

The culture of the organization is really what made me want to work there. It's a work hard, play hard environment where we put in the hours but also celebrate our wins together. The salary and compensation is decent and the PERKS are awesome -- free lunch, beer, special Christmas event, Halloween costume pageant, etc.

Cons

There are so many initiatives happening all at the same time. It's sometimes hard to keep up with the changes.
