Pros

JCPR prides itself on culture and being picky about who the company selects to bring on board. The people I worked with were wonderful. I really enjoyed working with and spending time with my colleagues. Yoga once a week was fantastic as well as the fruit and snacks available in the kitchen.

Cons

JCPR is a great place to begin your career (for a year or two), but not much headroom available for knowledge and growth if you are a seasoned PR veteran. You may find yourself asking for tools or assistance to do your job more efficiently, yet, those requests will be ignored. If you aren't preforming well, there is no plan of action to help you improve nor any type of warning. You may receive accolades one month and lose your job several wks later. Very inconsistent leadership.

Pros

JConnelly has been great to work with. The team is responsive, organized, and consistently delivers high quality work. They communicate clearly, stay calm under pressure, and are proactive about solving problems before they grow. Overall, they’ve been a reliable partner and a real positive presence on every project.

Cons

The only ‘con’ is that they’re so fast-moving that on longer projects, adding a couple more early checkpoints could make the process even smoother.

Pros

Opportunity to work across a variety of small accounts and gain experience managing multiple responsibilities.

Cons

Poor onboarding, lack of management direction, unclear performance metrics, and increasing workloads without adequate support. Employees are expected to navigate constantly shifting expectations with little transparency. I was terminated without warning or meaningful explanation, and the offboarding process was one of the most unprofessional experiences of my career.
