Pros

They give you the ability (or obligation) to work on several clients from several different industries. You might work with all sorts of clients ranging from small, to large, to boring to quirky. There is freedom to input on how things should be done. You will eventually learn the basics of your job function because you need to in order to do your work. Processes are set in place that guide you in basic practices so you can refer to them when confused.

Kontras

You will be forced to learn on your own or get in trouble. You will be expected to perform certain new actions, but will be given no resources or guidance to complete your tasks. While there are processes set in place to help in this matter, in an industry like internet marketing, processes become outdated very quickly. Employees are expected to redefine processes as needed, while taking care of their employees. There is no true intrinsic value for working at the company. What does the company provide to you that you can't get elsewhere? There is nothing. Senior management has no direction for the company and it shows in employee turnover and morale. Leaders do not inspire or have any desire to motivate employees to work harder. There is no clear career paths, and promotions are unclear and raises are pathetic. The company runs on a very 'break-even basis' and therefore constantly feels as if financial cuts will need to be made. Overall, the mood and morale of the company is low and uncomfortable, while being covered by optimistic-acting leadership. Leaders do not know how to resolve complex issues, and expect employees to lead the company into a new direction with no clear goal or reward. The company has no culture.

Pros

Volacci is like a family. I enjoy working there and look forward to arriving to work each day. A strong Operations team allows us the flexibility to explore new opportunities in the market. People are genuinely kind and interested in me as a person, not just as an employee. We're growing. It's an interesting industry with huge upside. The skills I've learned can go with me anywhere. Everyone seems to genuinely enjoy their job and want to be there. Work at home 2 days per week. Very supportive of personal time and needs. Flexible vacation schedules. Management is responsive to team ideas. A new focus on "ideal" clients has meant more interesting projects and less customer turnover.

Kontras

Understaffed. We lost 2 people and didn't replace them. There is too much work to do. Benefits were cut recently after a tough 2011. I understand but it's still frustrating.

Pros

If you're looking for a place to learn, this is it. If you want to work for a company where you really make a difference, this is it. Be willing to work your ass off -- you're not going to have time to surf Facebook or Youtube all day: this is a real job. There is no sitting in a corner and doing those few things that get assigned to you. If you want to be "just an employee" go somewhere else. You will be challenged and stressed but when you are done, you will have a sense of accomplishment.

Kontras

CEO is a great guy, decent human being. However he struggles with interpersonal skills. He can be very demanding and curt - coming off as rude. But then he can turn around and be very generous. He also does not seem to pick up on normal social cues. Below-average wages. The CEO gave us a book for required reading -- I wish he would read this part again: "If I hire an employee at below-market rate, market forces dictate that I'm not going to keep that person forever, and replacement will be more costly in the long run than hiring that employee at the market rate. A high turnover rate is very, very expensive. It also makes it hard to create consistency in the workplace, which can lower productivity, service quality, and customer satisfaction (this is also expensive)."
