Pros

I left Marketing for Change after many happy years for a career change. I had a ton of opportunity to grow into new positions, -- even a title of my own invention -- and build new skills. I was able to steer my own growth with the support of wonderful supervisors. No one day was ever the same at this company. I was consistently met with new ideas that challenged me intellectually and professionally. Leadership cares deeply about the kind of work they do, how they do it (based in science), and the people they work for. They also understand that people are the engine and the heart of the company. The culture is fantastic.

Cons

This company is not a great fit for people who aren't comfortable with frequent change, moving quickly, and collaborating with co-workers and clients.

Pros

They draw and hire people who are nice, smart, and talented. They give room to define your own role and grow in your own direction. Good with remote work, no RTO mandates. Fairly committed to an inclusive and varied work environment with people of all types.

Cons

Below market pay, and very slow advancement. Responsibilities and workload grow fast, unrewarded. Departments, people, and leadership are pretty siloed (even ivory towered, for some). Attempts at modern autonomous team structures foiled by reflexive clinging to outmoded hierarchical structure. Leadership not really involved or aware, lacking understanding and awareness of the work, skills, growth, productivity, or challenges of employees. Rather disconnected, really. Raises and bonuses halted every presidential election year. Overly fond of talking head meetings. A bit of a cliquey, popular kids' table kind of thing going. Definitely seems being considered likable by leadership is the primary driver for advancement.

Marketing For Change Response

At Marketing for Change, we always aim to put our people first. We are glad to see this former employee was able to feel that value in their professional growth and appreciate the inclusive and collaborative work environment. And it never hurts when you are working with a nice, smart and talented team :) It’s unfortunate to hear his employee felt frustrated by their pay and slow advancement. Our salary increases and growth paths are all tied to defined competencies that we make transparent to all employees. For some this allows for rapid advancement. For others it can highlight where their growth and abilities may no longer align with the company. In the last 3 years, over 90% of our staff has been promoted at least once. On average, 32% of our staff is promoted each year. We always appreciate feedback as it makes our company and our culture stronger. We’ll use these insights to examine other places we may improve in the future. If this employee has further feedback please reach out directly (https://marketingforchange.com/say-hi/). We’d appreciate the chance to have a conversation on your experience.
