Pluspunten

They have workshops about content and strategy that help you grow in social media knowledge They don't require too much experience to join

Minpunten

-You are hired as an independent contractor meaning you get no employee benefits but you are expected to give employee commitment like working 9-5 no flexibility in the hours -They use a tracker app that monitors your mouse and keyboard activity and are required to have a certain amount of activity to log your hours to get paid. - Huge micro management culture but I think it may depend on the manager you are assigned to - They care more about the clients than the employees, viral videos come first -The company culture is a bit weird, since it is fully remote there isn't much interaction or community aspect to the interactions -The salary is not competitive at all but you are asked to do a lot -It is hard to have work life balance since you are required to give an action plan whenever you need time off. And all your work is expected to be done during your time away which is unrealistic

Pluspunten

Only pro is that this role is remote.

Minpunten

-High turn-over rate for a reason -Remote, but not flexible in when you need to take off for vacation/sick days. -Allegedly none of the CEO founders have a college degree or PR experience when building this company. -Seems to take advantage of fresh graduates. -Has ghost followers (could be bought) and low engagement on their social media. -Micro management -Irrelevant training videos if you want to grow in social media marketing (e.g. training videos are youtube videos talking about how to not procrastinate and quoting a gym influencer/entrepreneur which gave red pill vibes) -Office "based in Puerto Rico".... grew my suspicions about taxes -Full time employee expectations with no real benefits, it seems they try to take advantage of the fact employees are all contracted workers. -First two weeks I would only be paid $500 flat for training which is $12/hr (illegal btw minimum wage is $15/hr) -Immediately got bad vibes through one-on-one meetings and no assimilation into the team. -Not somewhere to be if you want to grow professionally and in the long-run. -No HR department to reach out to. -It seems after 3 months of working as an assistant, you upgrade to manager, and then you are training other people.
