Pros

- Pay is decent, but it’s because they know what a mess you’re about to step into - Beware is throwaway perks like “snacks”. Any agency in LA will offer this.

Cons

- First, the positive reviews here are fake. I’m predominantly leaving this review to highlight that, in case you can’t immediately tell by reading them. - The company has no understanding of modern creative, media, web, or project management. Everything is thrown together and no one follows best practices. - You will be overworked, your opinions will not be valued, and you will not be appreciated for your time and efforts. - There are NO learning opportunities, and no room for advancement. Just a select few people patting themselves on the back. - Projects and client agreements are notoriously under-scoped with minimal budgets and vague descriptions of what’s included. - Management brings on clients without the resources to manage projects, then blames the employees when the projects fail. Meanwhile, they continue to pile on the work and fight fires with the clients until the clients catch on and leave. - The company’s focus is DR TV, not brand work. This is not inherently a con, but they will not be transparent with you about this upfront. “Ecommerce” is a guise for TV media directed landing pages. - The company changes focus and direction every few months. The “start up” culture referred to in another review is because they haven’t figured out how to properly run their business yet, although they’ve actually been operating for 10+ years.

Pros

- Flexible hybrid/remote work - Great teammates - Younger / energetic team - Competitive Pay - Opportunity to Grow Quickly - Fun brands

Cons

There is just so much inconsistency that starts at the top. Leadership can come across as paranoid and emotionally reactive. This was a small company that grew very quickly as the business core is sound, but how to manage a rapidly growing company while trying to be excessively adverse to investing within the company leads to people being overworked, invisible, and under-appreciated. Nepotism is rampant. There are individuals that had no business being hired in the first place, and there are made-up positions created for family of leadership that want to join the company.

Pros

• Remote work flexibility. • A few kind coworkers trying to make the best of a broken system.

Cons

• The company constantly overpromises to clients and expects employees to lie to cover it up. • No actual tech or automation — everything is done manually, inefficiently, and with outdated tools. • Leadership is clueless, lacks vision, and doesn’t understand modern eCommerce or marketing practices. • Management refuses to evolve, insisting manual busywork is the “best” way to manage accounts. • Client churn is high for a reason — once clients realize the lack of strategy and results, they leave. • Zero accountability, no real structure or scalable processes. • Feedback is ignored, and internal culture feels performative and out of touch. • Training? Career growth? Forget it. • Nepotism is rampant — friends and family of leadership get hired or promoted regardless of qualifications, creating a toxic and unbalanced work culture.
