Pros

Work life balance was great, flexibility to work from home.

Cons

Management is all over the place, disorganized and unclear of the agencies goals. The culture is too relaxing and thus leads to a workforce that gets little to nothing done. Employees voices are not heard, even when opinions are asked, and false facts are given to promote a positive outlook. Open floor plan lead to a lot of disturbances and interruptions, especially with music constantly blasting. This was not a place for digital growth, creative ideas and getting things done. Put simply, this is a company that cannot look at the bigger picture, did not plan their road maps accordingly and came up with excuses as to why technology could not be built in the time promised.

Pros

The work environment is great. A beautiful open floor office plan with modern design and lounges to work or collaborate with team members. The agency cultivates a creative environment and most if not everyone has a voice to provide feedback. There are few barriers between you and upper management. Work is diverse and has the opportunity to make a real impact, even generate big profits.

Cons

Middle and upper managers seem inexperienced though open to suggestion. There is an inability to say "no"at all levels. There is little process or structure and projects are often started that don't seem to align with the plan or aren't technically feasible; ending up going no where. Priorities constantly shift often resulting in lost effort and unfinished work. Technology and design are often not on the same page.
