Prós
- Small close knit team and that allows you to make a greater difference than at a larger company.
- Company culture focuses on people and doing right by them (clients, cs staff, marketing team, cleaning staff, etc.).
- Marketing / Bus Dev Team is small which gives you a lot of ability to make a difference.
- CEO is always willing to sit down with you to hear new idea's and will implement if he likes them.
- Company is growing and there are opportunities for new responsibility, travel, etc.
- Day to day schedule is pretty flexible.
Contras
- You're forced to do more with less. This is also a 'Pro' in many ways but results are often compared to the results and campaigns of well funded companies who get to do a lot of things we do not.
- CEO is very ROI focused on each dollar he approves our marketing department to spend and at times this prevents us from doing campaigns that may help the brand.
- There are not enough team building events (meetings, times we all go out together, etc.).
- Technology changes are slow to implement.
