Pros

The partner in the company, Jen, is truly remarkable! If you get the chance to work with her you are lucky.

Cons

Working at The Dealey Group is like an emotional roller coaster you can’t get off. When you first start, they treat you like you have a ton of say in your projects and make you feel valued and heard. But, as soon as you’ve been there for about a month, it all starts to drop. You are expected to work more than the usual 40 hours and if you are able to get your work done in 40 hours you are called a slacker for not doing more. JoAnn Dealey, the CEO, micromanages everyone and is way too involved for a woman of her age. She will tell you things that will tear your confidence down so far that there is no other option than to quit. I appreciated my time at TDG only because it taught me what I expect in a workplace from now on.

Pros

Honestly the only pro I have are the people. Coworkers became some of my great friends - we all struggled together so you tend to get close lol

Cons

Underpaid & overworked. Don't mention you are struggling because then you become targeted and micromanaged. Oh, and they basically will push you out once you admit you are struggling - the leadership will portray that they are there to help but nah that's a lie. If it wasn't for the amazing coworkers & friends made at the agency, I wouldn't of survived lol
