Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your positive note, but we also want to address your concerns regarding salary and workload. It's important to note that our last full-time Content Strategist was hired in 2021, and we understand that you may be referring to an intern role based on your mention of an "entry level position." While we prioritize maintaining a healthy work-life balance and provide flexibility for all content strategists, including interns, allowing them to work from home 40% of the time (2 days WFH, 3 days WFO), it's standard practice for companies to establish Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure everyone's output. Regarding salary compensation, it's important to understand that internships typically come with lower salaries, which is consistent across various industries. We appreciate your input and are constantly working to improve our practices. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please feel free to reach out. Thank you again for your feedback.

Pros

– Range of clients to work on. Can have volumetric practice – Relatively independent, manage your own time – Good first step into the industry to learn the norms – Great colleagues

Cons

– Low remuneration but high work volume. Know of many colleagues managing up to 15 clients without extra remuneration on 2k-2.5k salary. – No training / courses for writers. Other than fine tuning SEO practices, there is no senior writer (nor intent to hire any senior writer role cause company leadership says no money). Talk to any writer and you know it’s all about learning by yourself. – Want to learn SEO as a writer? Expected to work 1 year before changing department to SEO side to relearn another set of skills. – Leadership made it clear that they are looking for quantity, not quality, when it comes to writing

Hi TT, Thank you for leaving us a review. You seem to have deliberately missed out the critical details in your content. As a fresh graduate with no writing experience and portfolio, it is common for your salary to be lower than your colleagues. At this stage, we can only offer you an opportunity to kick-start your writing career and build up your experience and portfolio. However, the salary range you have indicated is highly inaccurate for our experienced writers. Given the flexibility of the writers to work from home, there has to be some form of measurement in place. An individual's output is measured and compared against the performance of our team of writers. As you are aware, your performance was dropping every month. During the last 3 months of your employment, your output was below 50% of the team average. Hence, the company will not be able to perform any pay adjustment until an improvement is seen. Managing "up to 15 clients" is common for an agency’s writer as we are focusing on shorter content updates. Each article word count is about 500 words. Additionally, the job opening clearly states that it is for an SEO Content Writer role. Hence, the training will be focused on SEO writing. Regarding your other point of Quality vs Quantity, I think you are deeply mistaken. By quality, we are referring to the fact that we are an agency focused on SEO-optimising content, and we are not looking for long-form content that requires days of research, this is the quality content portion that we are referring to. Once again, we thank you for your feedback. We can see that you have moved on to a reputable branding and communication company. This has always been one of our goals to help fresh graduates build up their writing experience and portfolio so that they are closer to landing their desired roles and being able to work for their dream companies. We wish you the very best for your future writing career.
