Great in the beginning — HORRID after it became top-heavy

Pros

Small team. Initially a collaborative environment.

Cons

Dubbing oneself an "interactive agency" would mean that your workers come from an "interactive" background. WRONG. What's Up is essentially an interactive shop ran by leadership that come from the editorial/print world. Additionally, design-by-committee is quite the normal process there. Lack of professional growth, financial growth, or overall mentorship is prevalent as well. Employees are not permitted to showcase work on their personal sites once they leave, might I add. Lawyers will get involved if your personal site has higher SEO than theirs. You'll be considered a "threat" to their business. Between long hours and constantly explaining fundamental processes that are normal in other agencies, there was absolutely no growth for my tenure there. Salary-wise, they aren't anywhere near industry-standard for Atlanta.

Pros

Loved the employees that worked there. Made some great friends. Had a few cool projects.

Cons

Without a doubt one of the most poorly run agencies I have worked at. The CEO could not drive the ship nor would he let others. We lost so many jobs because of lack of direction and lack of delivery. Clients bailed right and left. The company was adrift when I left. Only a few remained and I have heard all the people doing the work (designers, developers etc.) all left. Both contractors and former employees are still owed money. I would advise anyone doing business with this company to rethink their relationship. I saw too many questionable business practices while I was there.

Pros

I've worked here a long time and have seen many highs and lows.

Cons

The highs make the effort worth it, and the lows force you to rise to the occasion.
