Pros

-Dedicated teams -Hardworking -Passionate about their work -Driven to make clients happy I've been in the Los Angeles office for a couple of years now, and I've got to hand it to our Director of Media, Evan. He worked himself up from an intern position. He's probably one of the nicest guys I've ever met, too, and he is really dedicated to his clients and respects the people who work under him. He keeps the team on point, and yet is completely approachable. I also worked with the guy who wrote the review "The Biggest Mistake You Will Ever Make," and I know it's him because he was so judgmental and kept on about his "Christian Values." He didn't have any. He was nothing but a bully. Literally bullied everyone. That's when Evan and Adam, our CEO, had to step in. Both men are 100% against people who are bullies, and want to make sure our offices are a safe place to work. Since I'm not senior management, it makes a huge deal to me to know both my bosses will not tolerate bullies.

Cons

I wished we could go on more retreats and outings as an office, but I know it's harder to do since we're a bit smaller than other digital agencies.

Thank you for providing your feedback. We work hard to make sure our offices are staffed with competent, hardworking management. To reiterate your point, we will not tolerate abusive or defamatory behavior, and work equally hard to make sure every employee is respected, heard, and valued. We are working on providing more departmental retreats, so stay tuned.

Pros

In the 2+ years I have been at 87AM, we have transformed ourselves several times, and we are now in a very strong place as a digital agency. These transformations have occurred visibly in the physical office environment we inhabit, as we have now outgrown 2 offices in my tenure and are comfortably enjoying the 3rd. Our office creates a collaborative and inspiring environment and is also able to adapt as we continue to grow in size. The team here is passionate, dedicated and expert-level in the digital space and is poised for continued expansion in the future. The leadership echoes those same qualities, but also looks after the staff to ensure happiness, fulfillment and career success. We are a group of self-starters who enjoy the fast and furious pace of digital agency life and wouldn't have it any other way.

Cons

The amount of growth 87AM has seen has been massive, and as such, certain things get compromised in order to stay nimble as a business. We are now so much stronger as a result of these changes, but a few things became extra challenging in the short-term, including training/onboarding, organizational structure, setting up process and truly enforcing office culture. Those challenges are now big focuses of the agency, so they will continue to improve as we move forward into our bright future.
