Working with such smart, creative, fun, and driven colleagues across the board.
Fresh, exciting work for mostly terrific clients, from Fortune 500 and SMBs to VCs and startups. Helping these clients find success, while staying true to their core products, value, and mission, amid hype, brings a great feeling of accomplishment.
You can choose your strengths and interests with respect to verticals and client tech/products — and stretch into others if you want to do so.
Exploring new technologies and learning. For example, digging deep into AI use cases, apps, and tools — what's real and what's vapor.
The CEO is extremely driven — and truly brilliant. If you actually listen to and read carefully what he says and watch him in action, even smart, polished professionals will learn a lot. His instincts and accumulated knowledge are pretty extraordinary. The entire leadership team is impressive and approachable.
There are many opportunities for regular, honest feedback. It is taken to heart. You’re always free to offer constructive observations. I’ve been here for four years and am not shy. It’s safe to offer thoughtful critique, but you should also offer solutions — as is standard professional practice.
While there’s a necessary organizational structure and reporting lines, it’s a relatively flat and open organization.
The benefits are exceptionally good and the salaries are strong.
Cons
PR is fast-paced by its nature. That isn’t unique to Bospar. There can be a lot happening at one time. Prioritizing is key. The company is working on work-life balance and that’s important to do.
