Pros

My team was very close-knit. Media Services and Operations teams gels very well and everyone is very down-to-earth. Get to meet other teams such as the French team. Company away days are enjoyable but they are few and far between. Working from home is a good plus, but there are rumors that soon senior management will introduce a 3-day office working week. Not needed at all.

Cons

Money always comes first. Senior Management doesn't care if you work extra hours despite work-life balance being one of their supposed top priotities Most importantly, in these 12 months, the culture rapidly deteriorated when people started to leave. Management took my resignation very personally and treated me poorly after. If you're only interested in money then an account manager here would be a suitable role here, but I would not recommend the role for anyone else.

Great people, good systems and software, rewarding business goals, and generally heard across teams and departments.

Cons

Occasional gaps across departments due to size and scale across the US and over seas.

Pros

Fully remote, great work life balance, unlimited PTO (that management encourages you to use), down to earth staff (we all know we’re not saving lives here). There’s a reason people leave and come back all the time. Many employees have been here 10+ years. There is encouragement to move departments if you’d like (not so much internationally). Pay is decent but you can absolutely make more elsewhere. They provide a decent severance package if (when) you get laid off.

Cons

Culture has plummeted in the last 5 years and NOT due to Covid/remote work. Leadership completely gave up on DEI, frequent layoffs. It’s a decent place to be if you survive layoffs but it feels like musical chairs waiting for your turn. I’ve seen people who’ve worked here as long as I’ve been alive get let go right before Christmas. Your manager and seller(s) make or break your experience as an AM (previously customer success manager). Bad manager = no career progression, no advocate for raises/promotions, no direct support. Bad seller = no work life balance, inter-office conflict, negative reviews from seller will impact your annual review.
