Pros
- Amazing clients - being in the video games industry, working on many NDA projects, getting to see behind the scenes.
- Amazing colleagues - Everyone is passionate and talented. So much kindness and laughing.
- A CEO that cares - I've worked at so many digital marketing agencies and small businesses and the owners are all self serving. But Jon, although a bit disorganised, cares about the people, their progression, doing what's best for the team.
- Flexibility - We work from home, but aren't chained to our desks. Many people with young family's, able to do school runs etc in the middle of the day and work around that. We are treated like adults, trusted to get on with things.
- Trust - I have never worked anywhere im trusted to get on with it, i am allowed to make decisions and asked not told. Companies often hire you for your knowledge and breath down your neck - not here. Your opinion is asked and valued, It took me 6 months working here to get used to not asking 'can i/should i' - it was so freeing learning i didnt have to work somewhere where you were being micromanaged and scrutinised.
Cons
Its actually really hard for me to think of anything...
I would say workloads can be high, but that's agency life.
People never leave, so limited progression... but its a company of 20 people where people love working... so to be expected,
