Pros

Learned a great deal about digital and television advertising, which I have been able to apply to other jobs.

Cons

Former General Sales Manager decided, seemingly on a whim, that my services were no longer needed after I had obtained more than double the number of affirmative commitments to annual marketing seminar, so I was given a half day off on Friday only to come in Monday so he could notify me that I was terminated with no prior warning or indication.

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
