      Pros

      - Cool offices, lots of perks within - Many opportunities to learn about different channels of digital marketing - Lots of young, energetic employees

      Cons

      - Frequent layoffs - since the pandemic began, there's a continuous cycle of making new hires then having layoffs - Flagrant favoritism, very political - Disorganized; senior leadership seems disconnected from lower level employees with little understanding of what they do or why - New CEO doesn't seem to have any actionable ideas about the org's future, aside from changing its name

      Thank you for your feedback. Under the current CEO, who began with the business in mid 2022, we've made two restructuring activities that unfortunately have involved laying off staff. Both times were due to misalignment with client revenue and in an effort to staff the business in areas of growth. While the business may have been political in the past, current leadership recognized this and is very much metric driven in an effort to not allow favoritism. Advancement and growth is purely based on merit and proven deliverable/success on individuals part. While we appreciate your thought that senior leadership is disconnected from 'lower level' employees, we challenge you to flip that thought and in reality, 'lower level' employees may not understand the direction and strategy that senior leadership is putting in place as the business is evolved into a a deeper, more client obsessed creative technology business. As a point to this idea, you note that the new CEO doesn't have any actionable ideas about the future, although he's communicated this many times and recently held a town hall in which many deliverables towards this were outlined. Beyond a company rebrand, the business has, and continues to change our go to market messaging. instead of being two separate businesses of performance marketing and investor relations communications, we have layered in both a deeper creative and creative production element as well as technology product offerings that solve problems for clients. If you visit LinkedIn and look at the Waste Less, Grow More" campaign as well as other posts that speak to navigating the creative technology landscape, you see that the CEO, and the company, have a very pinpointed direction and have already been moving in this direction for some time. We encourage colleagues and anyone considering joining the company to ask specific questions about the direction of the company if it's not fully understood as the direction has been communicated, is focused and is well underway. Thank you again for your feedback.

      Pros

      IDX gives you room to actually do your job. The leadership team trusts experienced people to think, challenge ideas, and make decisions instead of micromanaging. Collaboration across teams is real, not just something talked about in meetings. Smart people, solid process, and a genuine push to adapt as marketing and AI continue to evolve. If you care about outcomes and not just optics, this is a good place to work. There’s also a healthy respect for work life balance, especially compared to many agencies. Expectations are clear, communication is direct, and performance is measured on impact rather than hours logged.

      Cons

      Like most growing organizations, things can move fast and priorities can shift. That can be uncomfortable if you need everything perfectly defined before moving forward. Some processes are still evolving, which is the tradeoff for not being overly rigid.

      Pros

      The culture here is a standout. People are genuinely collaborative, helpful, and respectful of each other’s time. As a Project Manager in a performance marketing environment, I’ve appreciated how cross-functional teams partner to solve problems quickly and keep work moving. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and there’s a healthy emphasis on work-life balance, which makes it easier to do great work without burning out.

      Cons

      There is a documented 30-day ramp for new hires, which is helpful, but the learning curve can still be steep depending on the role/team. You need to be a strong self-starter to consistently hit that timeline, and some processes are learned through experience rather than through fully standardized, role-specific training.
