Thanks for the feedback! It is true; we do have favorites. We favor people who show up, bring value, and elevate the team, the clients, and themselves. These people are celebrated and promoted. Most "fivers" fit this category, and the few who don't are coached -- some of the best, most valued, highest earning, and longest tenures are fivers who embraced coaching. Thanks again for the feedback.

Pluspunten

Transparency: They are incredibly transparent about finances — so there are no surprises when things are not going well and they share the wealth when the company is doing well. Human: The owners are good people who care about the well-being of the team. They are in the trenches alongside you and host employee get-togethers at their home. There is a real small-business family feel to this agency. Respect Your Time: Company is structured around employees time. Work-life balance is baked into the timelines and the goal is for everyone to be done work at 5. Pay: For Baltimore, the pay is definitely above average

Minpunten

Depends on what you're looking for, so these may not be cons, but two things to note: -Smaller budgets for clients (mostly regional) -Micro-management of daily tasks / time

Pluspunten

Can’t think of any. Their whole doing-good thing is a sham given how they treat staff.

Minpunten

Nepotism at its finest when unqualified people promoted at expense of talented people. Some of the true stories about these people behind the scenes would turn your hair. All the rah rah pep rally self congratulations is pretty icky when they lay people off with no real severance and in spectacularly thoughtless ways. Also, prepare to be underpaid. No advancement opportunities.

Thank you for the feedback. We are not perfect, that's for sure. It's disheartening to learn that you feel this way as we work relentlessly to improve the operation and culture at every turn. "Fivers" stay with us for an average of 8 years because, as you know from your 4 years with the company, we run a compassionate operation that believes people can rise to better serve clients, be better team members, and meet our strategic and professional goals. It is true that when someone underperforms, we invest in lengthy course-correction strategies rather than beefy severances. Finally, we lean heavily on our independent Human Resources Consultants to make compassionate, fair, and appropriate business decisions, including how much people earn based on their performance and fair market rates. Thanks again for the feedback and best of luck in your next adventure!
