Pros

- Fun, fast paced - Trust: your managers fully trust your abilities and place in you in situations to learn and learn quickly - Career growth: there are alot of opportunities for quick advancement - Smart people - Hybrid working flexibility: company let a number of folks work remote full or part time regularly, so covid didn't initiate that element of the already existing culture

Cons

- Terrible pay - pay raise with each promotion is an actual joke - Learning and development - you learn alot on the fly, but personally didnt feel like we all were the social experts we were billed to be. There was not a major internal emphasis on constant learning and growth across all teams. -While you learn quickly by being "thrown into the fire", not all folks are ready and this leads to deteriorating client relationships and mistakes. - Retainment - barely saw folks leave in my first year, then people started leaving quite quickly following that. The company rarely addressed the reasons why people left. - Company direction - completely unclear the whole time I was there. I found it difficult to answer the question "What does Unified do?"

Pros

Campaign management team was a solid place to learn different DSP's and skills. Good PTO, medical benefits, and work life balance.

Cons

Below market pay with raises extremely difficult to get. Awful training and systems on account management teams. Thrown into the fire and expected to create brand new systems without training or support. Team is being held together by duct tape and bubblegum. Does not keep up with tech and AI integration/new tech. iHeartMedia owns Unified so any system changes/promotions go through a ton of bureaucracy. Use of slack and teams, maintaining Microsoft and google emails and communications was chaotic. Management plays favorites and is scared to ruffle feathers in order to promote growth/positivity. Lots of gossip and complaining about coworkers. No company culture or incentives, meet ups, offsets, perks. The work is overall extremely boring and not gratifying.
