Pros

The best things about AvreaFoster are the people and the work. Everyone, from the top down, are genuinely good-hearted people who care about others. I have made a lot of good friends and work with a lot of people that I admire and respect. I also have the pleasure to work with incredibly smart people who have helped mentor me. The work is very strategic and challenging which requires a lot of problem solving. Our clients trust us with their business problems and we deliver well thought out solutions. Our direct clients are usually at a very senior level so I have a lot of exposure to very intelligent and successful individuals.

Cons

The company has been evolving its business focus, and although it is now on-point and successful, there are still a few organizational hiccups that are being worked on.

I too am driven by the smart and talented people we have a pleasure of calling colleagues and team members that inspire us every day. I also continue to be humbled and honored to work with industry leaders in each and every one of our clients. As we've transformed our business, that comes with the organizational challenges that are to be expected when companies evolve and innovate. Thanks for your commitment to AvreaFoster and the thoughtful advice. I take it to heart.

Pros

Some of the best benefits I've ever had. Knowing the nature of the work, the company works to help out with their employees' work/life balance. While there are, of course, times when it can get hectic... there are offsets, for instance, like a "vacation bonus", where the only requirement is for me present a movie of my vacation to my coworkers at our weekly staff meeting. And on top of what I hired on with, additional, creative, annual benefits have been added on. Even though the agency is smaller, the opportunity for growth, advancement, knowledge, and experience is there. Due to the size of the team, the opportunity for your idea and voice to be heard is always there. Direct access to anyone on the Leadership Team on a daily basis. The company has an (almost) always open door policy. And, an annual trip out to the State Fair is definitely a "pro".

Cons

AvreaFoster is providing complex deliverables that rival the output of many large agencies. That necessitates the employees to have a "can-do" attitude and be willing to step up....sometimes beyond what they feel their current role would require. While this happens at nearly every company, it is more apparent in a company under 50 employees and amplified if another coworker is not stepping up as well.

Thanks for the great feedback. I always make sure to keep a team-first attitude in every decision, whether in developing a new staff benefit or just communicating with my work family every day. Thanks for helping me make AvreaFoster a great place to be.

Pros

Open door policy, employees are treated very well and very fairly. Many great benefits, training opportunities and growth opportunities. A bunch of smart folks, who work hard and provide creative and strategic solutions. Genuine folks, transparent communication.

Cons

What you get out of a position at any agency is what you put into it. The deeper you get integrating into your work at AF the more you will be rewarded and more recognition and responsibility you will get. If you don't put the work in, you won't be successful here. That isn't a con on AF, its more the type of people they choose to work with this smart talented group.
