Pros

Just the people minus the owners and the brother

Cons

I helped build the company and worked every single job title. They hired an owners friend who didn't know emails, faxes, and got paid THOUSANDS more than me with no experience! I had to do her job most of the time. The originals did not get paid as much as the new hires even with more education and experience. I had to work through sickness, vacations, 7 degree cold-yes it was 7 degrees! Heat was overbearing. Let's not talk about the cursing! The email blasts for their mistakes and throwing people under the bus instead of talking to them in front of clients! Even if it were the owners mistake! The emails- HOW DID this HAPPEN! They don't want me to get into every illegal aspect of what I know but they are highly illegal in work hours. When I quit, I pursued in unemployment which they tried to dispute. Even warned the office manager not to lie- they lost in COURT bc I proved that they were illegal and very absusive- they even tried to sue me and slander my name just because I had the courage to leave! DO NOT whatsoever even risk working here.

Pros

Co workers are awesome. Frequent travel.

Cons

BMF is run by two people who spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on their lavish vacations and trips around the world, but cannot even invest in buying their 30+ employees a water fountain (that's right, we used a Brita). As they travel the world, the rest of us picked up the slack. When there was any sort of discrepancy - the boys were quick to take the clients side and throw anyone under the bus before even consulting with their team. I can't even begin to count the number of condescending emails I received from all 3 partners. Ultimately, they all talk the talk, but can't walk the walk and it's apparent in almost every project the company does.

Pros

There are often free drinks during the events, and the office hours don't usually begin until 10:30, but that doesn't really matter because you WILL be contacted a trillion times beforehand. Located in Flatiron, which is pretty nice area.

Cons

The management are absolutely horrible. Tiny salaries with no room for growth or commission. I got a $500 bonus for Christmas after working an average of 70+ hours a week. I would have preferred nothing, since it was just a slap in the face.
