Pros

One of my favorite things about working at Team V are the people. Co-workers are true friends here and it's not uncommon for large groups to spend time together on the weekends. Having a team that you're friends with makes coming to work fun and comfortable, knowing that you are facing challenges and celebrating wins together. The leadership team is very transparent and keeps everyone in the company abreast of what's going on during monthly townhall meetings. They also take the time to get to know entry-level employees more personally, which makes you feel like a person as opposed to a number. During my time here, I've also found the opportunities for advancement to be limitless if you know where to look. Sometimes the next step isn't the most obvious one, but might be in another department or on a more challenging account.

Cons

The environment is fast-paced... which for me is a good thing, but if you aren't organized or get easily flustered managing multiple projects with overlapping deadlines then it can be challenging.

Pros

High-End Office Space, Open Communication Channels, Competitive Pay and Benefits Packages, Forward Thinking, Cutting Edge Industry Technology.

Cons

Rapid growth sometimes leads to growing pains and over extending of certain associates. But this is the cost of being on the forefront of your industry.

Pros

I would depict working at Team Velocity Marketing as biting into a delicious smelling pie filled with rancid garbage. At first glance, "TeamV" has a sweet smelling aroma. You are enticed by the main office's modern design with it's natural wood floors and all-glass meeting rooms; the recent upgrades to the 401K plans; really down-to-earth owner and president...ohhh and free snacks.

Cons

But upon biting in to this pie you notice the nasty garbage filling oozing with it's staffs' lack of diversity (Out of 200 staff members, I noticed 8 people of color behind desk while about 8 more are secluded in the print facility); leaders shunning workers for creativity and personal expression in exchange for robotic conformity and silence. (A "man's man" and professionals with a sense of humor are definitely encourage not to apply). You will notice the cut-throat culture where fellow co-workers are encourage to find ways to promote themselves while clipping you at the knees. You will notice the young, uncultured, sheltered staff pushing every "ism" that is adversely effecting American today. And if you must apply, I suggest using Team V as a spring board to gain as much knowledge about your field and within a year take your skills elsewhere. I only recommend this company for recent grads who know how to consume what they need and leave this pie to the trash.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review! At Team Velocity Marketing, we encourage all employees to promote their skills and to move up within our organization. We promote people based on stellar performance and teamwork rather than tenure. Successfully growing a culture like this requires setting up a system that demonstrates and recognizes contributions and performance on individual and group level. On the downside, it also requires establishing an understanding of consequences, ensuring employees take responsibility and accountability for their performance. Not everyone gets a trophy. In regards to the lack of diversity - the US workforce is undoubtedly becoming more diverse. As of 2015 minorities makeup about 36% of the labor force. Breaking it down by race and ethnicity approximately 64% in the labor force are non-Hispanic white, 16% are Hispanic, 12% are African-American, and 5% are Asian. Approximately 3% of the labor force do not identify in any of these racial or ethnic categories. Our statistics are not far from this, but we understand that there is always room for improvement. With that being said and in addition to creating a workplace inclusive of race, gender, and sexual orientation (to name a few), we seek something even simpler, approaching diversity problems with a more forthright, open tone. At Team Velocity Marketing we believe in confronting the hard realities and then doing something about it. We believe if we recruit from a diverse workforce we are better able to find the best and the brightest talent needed to compete in an increasingly competitive industry. By bringing together our different backgrounds, skills, and experiences, we are better able to breed the type of innovative and creative solutions needed to succeed. We apologize that you were unhappy with your employment and certainly wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
