      Pros

      Rhea is someone who recognizes the need to surround herself with people smarter than she is - and she's pretty dang smart. Working at Outspoken for the close-to-year I was there I learned more than I did practically anywhere else, and would not be the SEO I am today without that exposure. There was always support, and well thought out (and internally reviewed) work for clients.

      Cons

      There always will be hiccups working at a smaller agency, whether that's team dynamics, client or internal expectations. It's a matter of learning how to navigate them and understanding if there are any deal breakers on either side and not taking it personally if or when there are. Rhea is a strong personality, and not everyone is going to be able to work well with that.

      "would not be the SEO I am today without that exposure." -- I love this. Thank you for choosing us early in your career and it's so wonderful to know we were instrumental in helping you accomplish great things. If I can judge our success by different metrics, one of them is knowing that our alumni moved up in their careers to work for good organizations and looked back at their time with us as formative. Your cons are spot on--we're small. We're an agency. We're in an industry that changes fast. I'm a very passionate and direct human. Knowing that upfront is important and I think we also realized we had the wrong message in terms of hiring for a couple years. We focused too much on work/life balance and not enough on the work itself, the results, the clients, and each other. By refocusing our message during the interview process we've been able to really clarify our expectations and what it takes to succeed here. Thank again for your time with us and the note of encouragement at the end! ~R

      Pros

      - The work we do for clients is invigorating. - Everyone on the team is encouraged to jump in and contribute. - Issues get worked through quickly and openly. Communication is encouraged, and people take responsibility for their role in miscommunications and misunderstandings. (I've experienced this personally.) - The salaries are fair and competitive. - The benefits are outstanding. Unlimited PTO, fitness benefit, office expense reimbursement for remote employees, fantastic insurance policies with generous employer contributions, clothing allowance for those speaking at conferences, etc. - Team is likeminded on social issues that plague many workplaces, such as sexism, harassment, and bullying, as well as broader social issues that affect our environment, our more vulnerable citizens, etc. - The team has "adopted" a family and contributes regularly to their needs with things like gift certificates.

      Cons

      - Team is in transition to more automated processes, which brings growing pains common to this kind of shift. - Team struggles with managing employee time spent of billable projects vs non-billable tasks.

      Wow! Invigorating is a great word and to see it next to the work we do for clients, it makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Everything you mentioned above is who we strive to be daily. Sometimes we fall down and make mistakes, but with the best of intentions. Having an honest culture paired with kindness and positivity makes this a really wonderful space to grow in... management included! Thank you for choosing us and the advice. We'll always be learning and need this feedback to keep going in the right direction.
