Pros

Most of the people in the office were awesome. The expectations they set for you (200+ calls a day) really prepare you for whatever job you inevitably go to. The sinks have great water filters.

Cons

The owner/CEO is absolutely insane. Nearly every week he would lose it and fire ATLEAST 3 people. His thoughts on employees, VERBATIM, "This may sounds harsh, but every person in that room has a meter ticking over their head. They cost me money by the minute and most of them aren't worth it." The SEO/SMO this company provides is GARBAGE. Go to their yelp page, scroll to the bottom and read the "Not Recommended" reviews. They make sure to hide those the second they pop-up. Although the sales team are assured that CM no longer uses black-hat tactics, you'll have sites from lumber companies linked to porn websites. There is absolutely no communication between the clients and project managers, that could possibly be because it's a revolving door with that role. Everyone is miserable and is subject to the whims of a greedy, narcissistic tyrant. This isn't one of those bitter, "I was fired" reviews. Quitting this company was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Potential employees AND clients, stay away from Captain Marketing, their service is a rip-off and you WILL be treated like garbage.

Pros

Fine for a first job or for someone incredibly desperate.

Cons

Lowest pay in industry, managers who dont know what they're doing except for 1 Or 2 (not sure why they are still there either) And You wont learn much. Project managers speak to angry canceling clients every day. Expect to do your job, plus handle collection calls and 'saves'. Constant calling to save clients who you know should quit. There is no where to advance in a 20 oerson office with a ceo that doesnt eben know what goes on in that location. No benefits.
