Pros

Flexible marijuana-friendly beer-friendly workplace, lots of freedom with ideas, flexible hours, "fun" and constant music playing. Free gym membership w/ the attached gym (also owned by the company owner.)

Cons

Absentee owner (was there maybe 1 full week for the 6 months I worked there) and zero management (unless you count the fact that everyone has a "management" title) means zero direction, no new clients, no checking-in on projects, and everything is rushed because no one knew X had to be done by Y (because no one knew who's job that was in the first place.)

Pros

Lots of responsibility given right away, you’re a real employee and member of the team, not just a coffee girl! Lots of room for creative exploration, strong guidance and feedback from mentors, great exposure to real industry clients and professionals.

Cons

Honestly I can say there are real cons, it all depends on your personality and how you work best. It is a small team, and that was great for me, but if you’re more interested in a traditional type office setting, it might not be for you. I personally loved getting to know everyone so well and being able to talk so much with all of my mentors.
