Pros
Working at PHMG has allowed me to sharpen my creative skills, and then some. When I started over three years ago, I was barely able to confidently talk through ideas. I am now pitching creative ideas to some of the highest people in the company with conviction and assertiveness. Some of these ideas have helped shaped the business and its unique product, so it was great to have that trust distilled in an employee. The company pushes personal development as well as professional, which I also found to be very refreshing. Much like other reviews - I have to agree that one of the best things about the job is the people, especially those within the department. I have made great friends here. As far as the creative departments go, the company does a great job in hiring interesting and talented people. You get plenty of chances to socialise with them in the two lavish work events. A newly introduced discount programme is also a great perk of the job.
Cons
The salary is below industry average considering the specialist training/education involved to obtain the role. Having said this - there is a fantastic annual bonus scheme. It could be argued, however, that this would be more beneficial to individuals if it was awarded on a monthly/quarterly basis. Due to the size of the department, the potential for natural progression is quite limited
