Pros
Windmill is a smart marketing firm. The job sticks to a general 9-to-5; no intense periods that require staff to stay late and grind away on something. We've kept intentionally small and hire experienced colleagues; there's really no junior staff and everyone is expected to carry their own bag. Production has always had a place in-house, so it's more than just consulting and project management -- we actually produce much of the work. Communication is completely open out of necessity and everyone has access to the entire team for project work and any internal dynamics.
Cons
Most projects are released, acknowledged, appreciated, and celebrated in a very modest and professional way before moving to the next active project in the queue. There may be missed opportunities to let the staff fully and truly decompress after a hard-earned win.
