Pros

The ceo and managers have a genuine skill for deceiving people into thinking this place is ok despite its reputation, and that means they are able to hire a lot of great talented people there. The team I worked with are some of the best people I’ve ever met and they made all the suffering tolerable for longer than I thought possible.

Cons

The ceo is authentic (authentically crazy). Which is a lot of fun to observe, but also does manifest 99% of the time into people being aggressively yelled at or manipulated. He’s also adept at finding managers with little to no character that will excuse his angry, cult leader behavior just cause they make enough money. I’d love to mention more cons, but it’s pretty impossible to not just endlessly rant about the ceo considering the company is really just him and managers who tolerate his struggling emotional state. This is essentially a corporate play place for someone with (presumably) intense father issues and a possible fluttering mental health crisis. (Which I hope he seeks help for)

Pros

MarketScale gives you real ownership and smart teammates. The pace is fast, expectations are clear, and when things bottleneck it’s usually cross-team communication, resolution. I’ve grown my career, skills, and knowledge here.

Cons

The entrepreneurial, high-ownership pace isn’t for everyone, but for me, it’s a big plus.

Pros

Great work-life balance. Great opportunity to make a difference coaching Fortune 100 clients in high stakeholder conversations and relationships.

Cons

There is constant change and it really is a fast environment. Every week there was a new initiative new training that seemed to contradict the previous week. It is moving as fast as the AI industry is moving. Client services were moved in-house although it is clear that this was a cut for costs as they had a big emphasis on cutting costs this last year in editing and software. The tech also was becoming more and more glitchy and not as well tested as it should before launching to clients with a lot of issues on calls. This really the most frustrating part of the experience. I believe the clients overall benefit from the platforms and the clients deserve a strong client services team for what they are paying for.
