Pros

Great client brands and great people. Flexible time off. Solid holiday schedule. Decent pay and benefits. You will make some great friends trauma bonding.

Cons

Leadership is a mess. There is turnover left and right. Much of this is driven by toxicity and mean girl politics at the ALT level. There’s a new target every quarter and once it’s you, watch out. The way a particular ALT member speaks so condescendingly to her team, her peers, her superiors is outrageous. But it’s “not wrong”. Everyone works in fear. There is zero autonomy even at director and above levels. Expect to be treated like a child over semantics until you are eventually let go. Leadership continues to point the problem everywhere except the toxic source.

Wide variety in daily work. Different brands and audiences keep me active. Building my resume with top-tier companies. Constant opportunities to improve communication and marketing skills. Things run relatively smoothly here. Good collaboration between creative, media, and social teams.

Cons

Shifting deadlines and priorities can disrupt timelines.

Pros

Coworkers are kind, but there honestly aren't any benefits to working at Code3.

Cons

My workload is pretty overwhelming, and I often have to accomplish a lot of complicated tasks, but my salary doesn't reflect that at all. There also aren't a lot of opportunities to advance being handed out to employees. Definitely not a company I would recommend working for to anyone. Ever.
