Great agency. Great people. I loved it and only left because I didn't like Atlanta. Also loved that it is privately owned so you don't have to deal with holding company bs. Really makes a difference.

Worked there a while ago. Great culture but it is pretty cliquey amongst the teams and departments. Also, I agree with AM1 but the downfall of being independent is they don't have the financial backing of a holding company. This translates to sub par pay and very sub par benefits. If you don't mind less than competitive pay, it is a very fun agency to be at.

I was a strategist there and never been so miserable. Was not a good culture fit and their Strat head micro manages.

Help me ask for a raise in my upcoming performance review? In sum, my company’s HQ is in Texas and I feel I’m being paid a Texas wage when I live in Los Angeles (the role is remote).

Based off of Glassdoor, my salary matches Texas’s exactly and SF has the same role at 10k more. Should I show him the Glassdoor page? Don’t want to come off too strong. Please advise
