Good, but not great, start into a career in gaming/PR
Pros
-Fantastic people, probably my favorite co workers I've ever had - Small team = Lots of hands-on experience at an early level -really cool clients that will look great for your resume. -Doing extra and going above and beyond what is asked of you is expected - leads to long term client relations, and a strong culture (this is both a pro and a con IMO, see below) -Generous but uncertain bonus structure -Absurdly good benefits -Free game codes as perks and generous equipment supplied to employees
Cons
-Culture really took a hit going after going fully remote IMO - endless zoom calls are brutal and really affect your energy -Many times I felt like I wasn't given specific enough feedback when told to improve -Pay is below most competing firms -Leadership can be somewhat disorganized in terms of planning for things like holidays, letting you know if you'll be involved in events, general admin, etc -Doing extra and going above and beyond what is asked of you is expected - leads to over delivering on what should be simple things like coverage reports that aren't needed, and lead to employees becoming discouraged when the client doesn't even end up reading them. -Very small team - another thing that's both a pro and a con IMO, as you are both expected to handle administrative "busy" work much further into your career than you would at other firms, but by the same token get to handle much more responsibility than you would elsewhere early in your career. -LOTS of international clients leads to odd hours/early calls fairly often
