Pros
The one thing that could be considered a "pro" is the vacation policy, but that doesn't even get honored 100% of the time.
Cons
Oh boy, where to begin with the cons?!? Here's a short list: The management, particularly the CEO, is clueless when it comes to content, and may actually be a real con. He may have done some health marketing in the past, but he has no idea what to do with smart, experienced content strategists. Instead, he hired a handful of very inexperienced content managers after several rounds of painful layoffs and the quality has seriously suffered. Clients are dropping like flies because they know they deserve better. The few people who are left must get in line or leave, fake their adoration for Unlock and the management team, work over 40 hours a week for no additional pay, and face constant turnover and uncertainty. Oh, and a laughable salary. Some were forced to sign ridiculous contracts saying they wouldn't work for another agency for a certain length of time, which is absolutely an insane request to ask of people who are fresh out of college or just beginning their careers. It's predatory. It's a psychologically unsafe place to work. I've seen a handful of current and former employees reduced to tears after being over-worked and completely unappreciated. If you care at all about your mental health and work/life balance, forget about this place. You will cry into your pillow every Sunday night that you have to go back to this place on Monday morning. Last year, they laid off a deeply dedicated employee who was 8 months pregnant. They also laid off a new dad the day he returned from paternity leave. They are ruthless and couldn't care less about their actual employees, only the bottom line, which is seriously suffering. This company hasn't turned a profit since it's inception. There are no opportunities for career growth for content folks. There is no visible path forward and if you ask for one or for a raise, you will be met with resistance and ignored. The place is full of egos, secrets, lies and zero communication from the top down. Suddenly, entire plans will be scrapped without knowing the reason why. Or people you worked with yesterday are gone tomorrow and you'll never know why. But don't you dare question anyone about it or you'll face getting fired.
