Broken promises, lack of transparency, and incompetent HR.
Pros
You'll learn the best marketing/fundraising skills at Targeted Victory. The company culture is exceptional, and you'll get to meet lots of talented colleagues here.
Cons
Aside from getting laid off from Targeted Victory (as did 30% of the company in January), I've been promised and told that my promotion would be granted in January, as did some other colleagues. At the last minute, HR informed everyone that promotions, raises, and quarterly reviews would be pushed back to April. After all the hard work and dedication that employees gave for the 2022 cycle was all for nothing, and I rarely took PTO while others who survived the layoffs got to take vacations after vacations. The leadership told us that we didn't have to worry about layoffs in 2022, and then laid us off at the very last minute without any advance notice. HR virtually does not exist — they do little-to-nothing to mitigate personal conflicts in the company. Furthermore, they brought in very questionable employees who were beyond incompetent for our line of work. They'll simply dismiss the concerns brought forward, which left me very distasteful of HR (As many others discussed as well). Gossiping and drama are extremely prevalent in the company (Which should not be surprising considering that it's the DC world). You'll meet very great friends at Targeted Victory, but many colleagues are snakes that have mouth chatters.
