Pros

Free soda and coffee. Sometimes fun but sometimes very childish company team builders. Big name accounts. You won't get fired. You can to learn a lot - "wear several hats" approach.

Cons

Offensive low-pay! After leaving Spear One, I took a similar marketing job and my pay increased $25,000. In fact, I felt guilty not telling my new employer my current (Spear One) salary during my interview, so I was honest with them. They laughed out loud and said "no wonder you are looking for a new job". You will often ask yourself "I went to college to do this..."

Pros

Literally nothing. I wish I could give 0 stars

Cons

Where do I start? For starters, this company cannot retain employees to save their lives. They’ve had about 15 out of 30 people on the events side quit this year, all very tenured employees. The only people left at the company are very new. The tenured employees were forced to train, teach, and onboard all of these new people while also working 12+ hours a day with no overtime pay… how does that make sense? If you’re working less than 9 hours a day (again, with no overtime pay), you get frowned upon. Management does not want to do the work themselves, so they push it onto the people who actually know what they’re doing. Then, once those people quit, management acts shocked. They go from shocked to angry very quickly. The two weeks after I put in my notice, everyone was so mean to me. They wouldn’t look me in the eyes, talk to me, or acknowledge me at all. Leadership here is seriously a joke, very immature and obsessed with drama. Speaking of drama, this is the most drama-filled place I have ever worked in my life. There are definitely a few drama-starting specialists, but leadership is just as bad. I have never referred a friend to work here and never will because it is genuinely one of the worst places you could work. Be prepared to work long hours for the lowest pay possible. There’s a reason so many people have quit. Leadership does not care, even after countless employees have told them exactly what they’re doing wrong. At this point, they will hire anyone with a pulse because they are desperate. Seriously, if you take away anything from this review, do not work here. It’s filled with long hours, low pay, and catty people. Thank me later.
