Pros

It's a comfortable/casual work environment and there is some flexibility in your balance of life outside of work. Furthermore, management has a keen grasp of their clientele, retail automotive dealers, and knows what helps move the needle. Most of the time you feel comfortable asking for flexibility in appointment scheduling etc... vacation time is decent.

Kontras

There is a fickle environment where management truly struggles to "practice what they preach." There is no clear creative department, although multiple "creative directors" have turned over in an attempt to make some change. All "creative" is template based and is relatively cheesy. If you are a design-focused ad fan, automotive in general is not the place for you. Moral is low. Very few truly enjoy their jobs. Employees feel expendable, so loyalty to the company is nearly nonexistent. The level of unprofessional behavior from the family-run management is unheard of. Integrity is spoken and preached on, but anecdotal evidence proves that management feels these same rules of aspiration do not apply to them. As a result, it creates an uncomfortable and hostile environment. For many, the job here is considered a blip on the resume until better things arise. Additionally, compensation packages are bleak and salary bumps are rare. Maybe this has changed, as this was a primary reason for many leaving in the past and I know management was making efforts to change this. Additional benefits are small. Vacation time is pretty standard but the health coverage is still unaffordable to many on their given salaries and 401K matching is abysmal. In short, the benefits can be bulleted on paper, but upon closer review, they really aren't benefits at all.

Pros

Fitzpatrick Advertising has the right elements to foster learning, creativity, and a challenging work environment. Employees play critical roles in meeting client needs as we represent the company with high standards.

Kontras

Fitzpatrick Advertising deals solely with the Automotive Industry where the competition is fierce. Fitzpatrick Advertising rises to the occasion however, by constantly motivating employees to learn more and remain on the cutting edge of advertising techniques.

Pros

The people that work at Fitzpatrick is what makes it a great place to work! It's a very fast paced environment in fact some days it's just CRAZY! That said, I was writing and producing television commercials in my first month! If you're looking for a great place to learn the ad agency business, Fitzpatrick Advertising is the place to start your career. I wish they were in Buckhead or mid-town Atlanta but the drive is only 25 minutes outside of the loop. You'll work long hours but the people are great and the compensation is decent.

Kontras

"Change Is Constant" ...that's the slogan Jim Fitzpatrick, the owner, lives by. One day you may have two accounts and the next day you may have FIVE! They expect a lot from every employee and they don't always give you clear direction you need to do a good job. They need to give there clients a better discription of what they can expect rather than offering the world to every client.
