Pros
People managers (starting with the CEO) genuinely care about each and every person who works at Hoffman, and do all they can to help each individual thrive. No one is perfect, but Hoffman truly is built like a family that supports, mentors, advocates and trains at every level--and intentionally makes it a priority to keep getting better as an agency, not for the bottom line but for its people, which is rare. Whether you're an intern just embarking on your career or a leader looking to make a tangible impact with your day-to-day work, Hoffman has opportunities to grow at every level. Most importantly, they recognize that every employee is a person who brings their whole selves to work and are constantly working to find ways to acknowledge and care for all parts of its people.
Cons
Nothing that isn't a part of the "PR agency life" industry-wide. If you don't enjoy fast-paced, deadline driven work that can shift on a dime with a high bar for excellence, then PR agencies might not be the best career fit.
