Pros

Smart team... very friendly, close knit place. Busy, entrepreneurial agency environment. Definitely not a place to hide out and expect things to be handed to you. Great if you're motivated by the work, not the title or pecking order. Business is almost too good with tons of work from great existing clients and new business always in the pipeline. Engaged, caring and accessible management. A place where you can actually affect the way the business operates, the way the work is done, etc.

Cons

Growing company shifting from being a small business to a leading mid-size digital marketing agency. Structure and workflow is evolving -- a growing pain -- so you have to be engaged, active and motivated to take advantage of the opportunities that exist, or make your own. Movement can seem slow due to conservative business management so you have to be a little patient, but less so over the past months.

Pros

As a small agency, you'll quickly have the opportunity to do hands-on work for a diverse and prestigious roster of clients. You can come in with no experience out of school and learn a lot very quickly. Management is super supportive of employees and will work closely with you to get up to speed and support clients. You'll get to have fairly regular conversations with the CEO and VP. They also encourage you to explore other roles within the company to expand your skillset. Company culture is excellent. Other than the directors, the staff is very young. Everyone is super friendly. The company has done a great job of supporting staff during remote work for covid. There is tons of room for growth if you're willing to put in the extra effort.

Cons

Work can be hectic, constantly jumping from client to client and project to project. Not much room to move up if you're looking to "fly under the radar" - expectations for effort are high.
