Avoid - Anonymous employee The Golden State Employee Review

Really positive experience working with Southbay! Freelanced a few stories for them and they know what they’re doing. Let you conduct your own interviews and write up stories in your own voice, within reason. Really enjoyed working with them.

Nothing I can think of

People care about helping each other succeed Open about professional development and opportunities for growth within the company Good balance of home-grown talent with hires from bigger companies/agencies Almost all business comes through referrals so the relationships are pretty tight with client leaders Communication with leadership is really open and transparent People are prioritized over processes Competitive pay with equity/ownership opportunity Dog-friendly Great time-off policy Convenient location of LA office in El Segundo

Not a good place for you if you're not a self starter Roles can get morph on-the-fly because wearing a lot of hats is the norm here Constant growth of client businesses and the company's owned businesses makes for a frenetic pace Resourcing and process improvements are needed Must stay vigilant and vocal about your own time management to get ahead of burn out
