Prós
Fast growing, highly-entrepreneurial agency that values and recognizes accountability and excellence. Recent acquisitions and senior-level hires have deepened the firm's capabilities to include all facets of corporate and consumer public relations, marketing, social/digital and design and more. Great mix of ongoing clients, along with interesting project work. Regardless of where you are in your career, you will leave Reputation Partners a smarter, more well-rounded marketing/communications professional. Excellent benefits and work-life balance. Leadership is invested in career path development and has open dialogue with all team members regarding career goals, paths to promotion and up-skilling.
Contras
Very lean team, so everyone wears a lot of different hats (particularly at senior levels). Generalists, independent thinkers, strong writers and the client-service obsessed will thrive here. People who are used to being a "cog in the wheel" at a big agency working on one account will not do well here. The firm has experienced considerable growth over the past two years and leadership has been working hard to invest and improve upon its operations, finance, IT and HR infrastructure to keep pace with growth.
