Pros

The company is on an extreme growth path. In the few years I’ve worked for the company. It’s grown every quarter. Quarterly presentations from the CEO and CSO provide transparency on every level. If you’re looking for transparency between the these quarterly presentations, you have direct access to management at all times. Freedom to do your job. The people are great. Probably the best part of working there.

Cons

No cons, it’s a great place to work.

Pros

-The digital marketing industry is everchanging, which makes the job fast-paced and fun. No two days will ever be the same. -The company still has a "start-up" mentality which allows team members to be creative and take risks as long as you can support your decisions. -Straight North really believes in work-life balance, which from previous experience, is difficult to find. If you want to work extra and do more, you are welcome to, but it is not required or forced. -The pay is extremely fair and they truly care for their employees. -The flat structure of management allows for easy access to executives. -Anyone who has managed clients knows that it can be extremely difficult at times, yet rewarding. This account management position is no different.

Cons

-The flat structure does not allow for title changes, but you will take on more responsibility. -The office design is pretty basic - no fun coffee machines, no pretty meeting spaces, etc. -The office is located in Fort Mill, SC which in the Charlotte suburbs. Moving the office closer to the city would make for happy employees and the opportunity to recruit better talent who do not want to commute.

Pros

The flat structure and transparent executive team provide a good leadership model that focuses on two things: the value of people within the organization, and providing clients with an efficient, effective service built to maximize performance. There is support across the organization to help solve problems, while also providing autonomy and independence for individuals to think outside the box. While not perfect, I generally agree with the priorities with which Straight North focuses.

Cons

The pace of change within the organization at times can seem fast as lightning, and other times creep at a snail's pace. The flat structure can be a limiting factor when looking to grow within the organization.
