Pros
There used to be a handful of great mentors at SocialSEO who had experience working at other companies, but they've all left within the past year. At the dev level (the account managers doing the work) there are some wonderful people left, but your friendship will likely be based upon and grown from the trauma you endure working for SocialSEO. They work hard to get rid of any negative reviews and the positive reviews on Glassdoor are left by new hires within their first 90 - 120 days who are asked to leave them and are too scared not to do it for fear of retaliation. There are also fake positive reviews here too.
Cons
SocialSEO is a sinking ship. Over the past year, this company has truly fallen apart and has become one of the most toxic places to work. The executive management team (EMT) only cares about their egos and their bottom line. Profits over people, 1,000 times over, but at this point, the turnover is so incredibly high that it IS impacting the bottom line yet EMT refuses to wake up. In under a year, 80% of the people on my direct team left the company. Logically (and financially) it no longer makes sense for EMT to continue doubling down on their practices, but here we are. If you're lucky to receive any training at all before you're bombarded with new clients, it will be outdated. Everything you do will be monitored (Teams chats, email response time, meetings). You will be gaslit constantly and everything will be your fault. You will have more work than you can possibly handle, but told it's your "time management" that's the issue. Most of your clients will be needy and hardly able to afford SocialSEO's services, but when they quit, it will be your fault. You won't have time to do any quality work for the few clients that treat you respectfully. You will be required to offshore work to a team in the Philippines and lose out on bonuses/promotions if you don't comply - (SocialSEO is also not transparent about these offshoring practices with their clients and they treat their Phillippines employees terribly). You will be extremely overworked and taken advantage of and then reprimanded for daring to show emotion at work or trying to stand up for yourself. Your mental health will suffer at the hands of middle-management and executive team bullies. In exchange for all this, you will get an uncompetitive salary that you could've found working at a local gas station. It's important to note that middle-management and EMT are completely made up of individuals who have NO outside experience beyond SocialSEO. Not only is this bad for your career in a networking sense, but it also means that there is a high degree of nepotism that will impact every aspect of your day-to-day role. Finally, it's also worth mentioning that this company is not a safe space for BIPOC or anyone who does not identify as a Christian Conservative. I could go on and on, but here's the main takeaway: Take ANY other job. I beg of you.
