Pros

I have worked in this company for 8 months and I can, with my hand on my heart, say that this is the best company I have ever worked in. We have a forward thinking and ambitious management team, who want to invest in the employees as well as a successful future for the company as a whole. There is a family feel to the culture. Success here is defined within the framework of addressing the needs of the clients and caring for each other. My colleagues are enthusiastic, professional and very supportive. The energy in the office is positive and always buzzing. You could not wish to work with a better bunch of people.

Cons

As is inherent to Agency work, the fast pace can at times, add extra stress to already busy teams. The compensation and benefits could be more competitive.

Pros

Positive Team Experts to help with professional development Compensation Fully Remote Access to HubSpot resources Great intro to B2B / Tech/ Marketing Opportunities in wide range of marketing roles

Cons

As a small company, there can be several changes and requirements to work on quick timelines. Clients can be tough/uneducated surrounding marketing techniques and makes the work less rewarding. Compensation will be reasonable, but not high.

Thank you for your excellent review of Penguin Strategies from the remote perspective. We are really happy to see that you felt that your professional development was in expert hands and that you have learned a wide range of skills in this entry-level position. As an agency, our teams work with many different clients and as in all walks of life, there are challenges when trying to meet some expectations, especially working with clients who are new to digital marketing. As our values dictate we still need to manage these challenges with empathy and transparency, expertly guiding our clients through their agreed strategy. At Penguin Strategies we have a policy of annual pay reviews and this policy has been upheld and pay rises given where appropriate, also throughout the Covid years. We do award gifts to our teams for special holidays and when celebrating certain events such as National Pizza Day. Thank you again for your feedback and we wish you all the best of success in your new role.

Pros

Leadership consistently shares knowledge, best practices, and experience through 1:1 conversations, and team conversations. I have found that the owners of the company are extremely generous with their time, and are eager to share reasonings and methodology behind what they do and why from a business perspective, and always always put the clients' best interests first. I was hesitant to join the US team fearing a disconnect from leadership and teams in IL team, but this is absolutely a non-issue. Nor is the time difference. This is a wonderful, supportive place to be.

Cons

I have nothing to share here.
