Pros
Entrepreneurial Rewards those who roll their sleeves up, take responsibility and believe in themselves enough to stick their neck out. For entry level: you will have ample opportunity to be exposed to more projects and client interactions than at network agencies For mid-level: you can lead without the hierarchical layers but you’ll have to be brave For senior level: here’s your chance to try out those agency development / change ideas that no one was willing to listen to at other agencies
Cons
This place is not for the faint of heart. If you’re looking for work/life balance, this is not the place, find a sleepy agency. This agency is about full-on, make it happen, whatever it takes, figure it out, type of environment. No one is tasked to hold your hand, tissue-wrap your feelings or listen to complaining. If you don’t like something, have the guts to change it. Courage is about facing your fear and stepping through it. We meditate. We do yoga. And yes, we wear Prada.
