Pros

For a price this places teaches you how to be tough and the concept part of the job was really fun. Everyone from the owner to the receptionist was involved in the concepting stage. Some clients would ask for unconventional deliverables and we wouldn't say no which was actually fun to do. The owner is the nicest guy you'll talk to.

Kontras

Little to no work/life balance. Expect to take lots of work home at night and weekends. A lot of new talent would be interviewed but rarely was someone hired so the non-management employees are overloaded, overworked and putting in 10-12 hour days. Half of the team is super friendly and the other half have serious ego/attitude/control issues. They rarely follow through with creative projects that aren't directly client related. A lot of pressure is placed on concepting and designing viral projects that will make the company stand out and you are asked to spend your time outside of work realizing these projects. Eventually the projects get forgotten about and your personal time is being wasted.

Pros

• The greater team (producers, designers, social, etc) were a great bunch of people who really wanted to make great creative and cutting edge marketing materials. No matter how passionate they were, there were always roadblocks from the most senior management/founders, who consistently made terrible decisions - decisions that were bad for morale and bad for business. • Team bonding/commiserating due to said issues • Brief dog-friendly office. This was also vetoed after fleeting joy was had. • Standing desks • Filter coffee provided • Free paper-clips (limit 5 per year)

Kontras

There were some big personalities and some big ideas in this place that were consistently shut down by senior management. There were constant roadblocks to project success and growth of the company, and the most intelligent and thoughtful opinions were not listened to. Decisions were made regardless of detailed strategies and dedicated time put in by talented employees, which lead to widespread burn-out and general frustration. While senior management may have had "good intentions", good intentions don't mean you actually know how to run an advertising agency. This was consistently obvious by the choices being made that would surprise the team. A great company is the product of it's employees, and unfortunately this wasn't realized at BLKBX.
