Pros

Great benefits and normal pay. There are some good people who are willing to contribute to employee growth, but all in all, they are money hungry and a serious senior leadership clique.

Cons

My title sums it up! They do not invest in their employees. There are serious cliques and if you are below an SAE, you are disposable. They expect perfection in your work at all times and if you aren't strong in a certain area, training will not be coming your way. They will only pile more work on you. There is high turn over as they grow, which can be attributed to all the above, and a few certain managers whom have been complained about MANY times. The owners make every decision (that's not how a company is run) and they love these managers and just don't do anything about the issue. Opinions ate not received well. If you haven't been with the company for a while, you need to walk on egg shells because you will be judged harshly.

Thank you for your feedback. I am truly sorry that you did not feel supported or heard. We have experienced some turnover. It's inevitable. I am proud to say that the majority of our turnover has been healthy - either career changes or just not the right fit. We work very hard to help employees reach their potential, especially those at the beginning of their PR/Comms career. We offer writing support at the individual level and monthly training and lunch-n-learns geared toward specific levels. Complaints are always heard, and more so when they come with an idea for a solution.

Pros

I started at March as an intern, and was quickly given a lot of experience and responsibility, alongside a lot of support, coaching and guidance from March. March is all about promoting from within and helping people develop the skill sets to become better, well-rounded PR pros. March has a very strong content and digital arm, and those people are often embedded on PR teams. March also has a robust performance review, mentorship and skill development program. I ended up being able to move up the ranks and on to the management team in less than 7 years. Throughout my time at March I had incredible experiences, getting to travel abroad, to major tech events like CES, and to work on some of the most exciting tech brands locally and across the US. March is very respected in the tech industry, with much of its business coming from referrals from current clients. In terms of the people, I can’t say enough good things. The owners of the company genuinely care about each employee personally and professionally and are invested in their success. Some of my closest friends are current and former March employees. I ended up moving on to try my hand at an in-house role, but have March to thank for developing me into the PR professional I am today.

Cons

Not much to say here. The work life balance can be tough, as is the case at any agency. However, if anyone’s workload is out of control, there is a huge effort made to fix it. And, as I was leaving, even more precautions were being put in place to get an even better birds eye view of a team member’s workload on a day to day basis.
