Dream job, dream team. - PR Coordinator 50th Parallel Public Relations Employee Review

Diverse types of projects Good mentorship opportunities Interesting clients Valuable hands on experience that has come in handy in future job interviews

Wished the pay was a bit higher

I was grateful to work at 50th while still quite fresh out of my degree in communication. I wanted to do meaningful work on a local level, and 50th Parallel's vision resonated with me. I learned so much at the job, and management was open to giving opportunities for those who wanted to grow with the company. I really found that there. I gained skills on how to edit both audio and visual media which is something I am particularly passionate about. The work was intense at times but it was also very rewarding. While I've since decided to pursue a path on the journalism level of things as opposed to the PR side of things, I will always be grateful for my time at 50th Parallel.

My reasons for leaving the company had more to do with the desire to shift fields from PR to journalism as opposed to issues within the company. As I mentioned above the work can be intense and busy season is very full. But also like I mentioned above - you will be met with reward if you work hard.
