Pros

Memory Tree is a wonderful place to work. The team is made up of welcoming people who are great at their jobs. Overall it's a positive environment to be in. The co-founders are passionate, smart individuals. It's a great place to start your career!

Cons

There is little opportunity to advance within the company beyond whatever role you are hired for. Big, career building jobs are sometimes outsourced to freelancers so it limits the ability of staff to learn new skills and build their own portfolios.

Pros

Read my Memory Tree review below.

Cons

I wanted this role to work. There are genuinely talented, hardworking people here doing their best to keep things moving despite a leadership culture that often feels impulsive, reactive, and unprofessional. In a matter of months, I watched employees criticized publicly in front of coworkers and then dismissed shortly afterward. I also watched a new hire relocate their life for the opportunity, only to be terminated within weeks. Incidents like these were not viewed internally as shocking anomalies - they became part of the atmosphere. The most difficult part of working here was the instability. Employees were expected to remain fully invested while leadership decisions regularly undermined trust, morale, and any sense of psychological safety. There was a persistent feeling that optics took priority over thoughtful management or long-term planning. It is unfortunate, because the company does employ smart and capable people. But talent alone cannot compensate for a culture where employees are left uncertain about whether professionalism, consistency, or basic respect will be present from one week to the next. Anyone considering a role here should ask direct questions about turnover, management practices, and how conflict or performance concerns are handled internally.

Pros

This creative agency has done video and media work for clients in all kinds of industries for decades now. Their projects have a great deal of variety, and they're solid employers to work for. Pay for short-term freelance hires varies depending on the size of each individual project's budget, but it's always fair.

Cons

The media business has lots of peaks and valleys. Memory Tree has sometimes had to adjust the size of their staff to pivot to changing conditions, but that's not unusual in this field.
