Pros
you occasionally run into some talented people. If their souls have not been crushed by the company's arrogance and dictator style of management. Made a few great friends, which is likely true of any company where you mutually suffer. I imagine that the people who were together on the titanic got to know each other real well before it sank.. If you're desperate for money, this place will likely hire you, with no relevant experience or education, so I guess things could always be worse. But realistically, my peers included people who previously sold cable door to door, who cut hair, who were secretaries, girls who sold overpriced spandex in malls, former plumbers, went to "online colleges", had an associates, had no degree period, had never even stepped on a college campus... The criteria to be hired is literally being a warm body.
Cons
Its very clear that as a company, they are hurting financially. Print revenue has come and gone, and the company had never planned on what to do after. bonus checks mysteriously got delayed, or paid less than what they should have been, or never paid at all. Raises were in the 20-300 dollar range, total, annually, if you were lucky. IF YOU ARE A CLIENT CONSIDERING ADVERTISING WITH THIS COMPANY, WAKE UP. Read the reviews, they can't staff the empty buildings anymore. The only way this company continues to function is they literally send inexperienced people, taught to repeat what they hear from others, to prey on unsuspecting business owners. Not a single client to this day, has had a truly successful campaign with mlive. All the reporting is manipulated, the figures are NEVER accurate, and employees are taught to be spin artists to deny lack of performance. The fulfillment processes are nonexistent. million dollar campaigns rely on 2-3 people to work 80+ hours a week to hopefully input archaic processes semi-correctly.
