Far & Away The Best Agency I've Worked At
|
|
Every aspect from interviewing to onboarding is phenomenal, HR does a great job at making the process simple and easy. The team is not only extremely knowledgable, but GP has built a culture around helping and providing learning opportunities.
Having worked at a few agencies previously, Growth Pilots stands out by setting up the team with a great work-life balance having each employee focusing on only 2-3 accounts which allow each account to focus on driving strategy and testing rather than campaign maintenance.
The office culture really does feel like a family. There are both formal and informal company events and outings.
|
I haven't experienced any cons.

Just completed my first 30 days -- such a great agency!
|
|
- Great team and company culture -- they truly care about their employees and they show it by way of excellent perks and benefits. They understand that happy employees who enjoy coming to work make for a stronger team.
(Perks include frequent breakfasts and lunches, team incentives (we had in-office massages last week!), work from home on Wednesdays, weekly happy hours -- and the list goes on...).
- Promote individual growth and development - We are all allotted a quarterly stipend to put toward individual professional development. It can be used to take classes, attend seminars, buy books or tools -- or pretty much anything you think will help you expand your skillset and grow as a marketing professional).
- Defined company structure with career-pathing and opportunities for promotion -- as much as strong structure and career-pathing, etc. are things companies want to prioritize, it is often easier said than done. Growth Pilots has put in the time and energy to build a well-defined, well thought out structure and have created clear paths in a variety of directions for everyone to grow professionally and have opportunities for advancement within the agency.
- Highly developed tools, strategies and processes. Whether you are new to Digital Marketing or a seasoned veteran they have many tried and true methods, tools and processes that help make GP the successful and strong agency it is.
It can often be a challenge starting up at a new company but Growth Pilots welcomed me with open arms and have immediately made me feel like an integral part of the team. Can't wait for month two and beyond!
|
To be honest, I really haven't come across a "con" yet!

Paid Search Account Manager
|
Los Angeles, CA
|
|
Best Paid Search Job I've Had Yet
|
|
- Company culture is fantastic. They understand that happy employees produce better results, so GP focuses heavily on work / life balance.
- Most agencies will pile as many clients as they can on their account managers; GP won't ever give you more than 3. Most have 2.
- Vast majority of clients are modern tech-minded companies; it's easy to speak to them about strategy.
- Strong sense of teamwork; you feel like your co-workers have your back
- GP uses advanced techniques and proven processes for account management, so even someone who's been doing SEM for years will find plenty of new strategies and skills to learn. This is a great company for building your career up.
- Management actually listens and cares about how you're doing, and welcomes feedback on how they can improve. There's an overall sense of, "How can we be the best in everything we're doing?" at this company, which is very refreshing.
- HR (AKA People Ops) actually genuinely cares for you and your needs.
- Tons of perks, such as:
- Account managers get an analyst to help assist them on accounts
- Monday breakfast stipend
- Friday lunch stipend
- Quarterly team outings
- Commuter stipend
- Learning stipend
- Your own laptop
- Work from home Wednesdays
- Flexible Time Off! (no traditional vacation or sick leave time)
- Competitive salary
- Company-covered health benefits
- Opportunities for quarterly bonuses
- High bonus if you refer a new employee
|
- It can sometimes feel like the bar is set very high; all of the above perks must be earned with great time management, deep understanding of your accounts, and constantly pushing the envelope for yourself as well as your clients. Understand, though, that literally everyone at the company has your best interests in mind, including your managers. They are open to feedback and will actually listen to you.
- This job is fast-paced, and there's no room to slack. I don't view this as a con, personally, but some might. If you want a job where you can coast, this is not the job for you!
- Paychecks come once per month. This isn't that bad, it just requires some getting used to.
- Travel costs are typically paid up front by you, and reimbursed later, rather than covered by the company initially. The silver lining of this is you get to accrue frequent flyer miles and points for your credit card!
- Reporting is still very manual and time consuming.
- This is a Mac-oriented company, so you may need to adjust to this if you're a Windows user like I am.

- Continue doing a good job being receptive to feedback from employees.
- Consider investing in an advanced reporting software that could take some of the time off of your account managers.
- 401K matching would be great!
- Consider a higher commuter stipend or more work from home days for employees that live far.

Through my own experience, I\u2019ve learned employees are the most important aspect of a company. Without them, a company will not succeed. Beyond that, you don\u2019t just need employees\u2026 you need HAPPY employees. The policies, benefits and perks we\u2019ve implemented are to ensure employees are able to maintain a healthy work/life balance and be the best version of themselves!\r\n\r\nSecond, feedback is one of the most important things at Growth Pilots. We\u2019re constantly looking for ways to evolve our feedback loop (if you have any improvements, let us know!) and want to ensure we\u2019re as receptive to employee feedback as we hope employees are to ours. Doing so fosters a comfortable work environment where employees feel empowered to speak up. You don\u2019t find this at every company.\r\n\r\nThird, do we have high standards for our team? Absolutely. Do we set the bar high? 100%. While some may look at these as cons, I actually consider them pros. Personally, it makes me push myself further than I have before. Over the past year, I\u2019ve learned, grown and developed in ways I never knew I could. Take it as a blessing in disguise and you will do wonderful things during your time at Growth Pilots and beyond \ud83d\ude42 \r\n\r\nIf you have any further feedback to share, please don't hesitate to email me directly at stephanie@growthpilots.com.\r\n\r\nAll the best,\r\nStephanie\r\nPeople Operations Manager", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]

Great Agency Experience (Paid Social)
|
|
Get lots of experience immediately handling (or helping with) accounts
Nice people always willing to help
Only have to handle 2-4 clients, so you're not worked to death
40 hour work week for the most part (I've heard horror stories from other agencies)
Work atmosphere that encourages testing and experimenting with new features
Snacks, drinks, beer and rose on tap
|
Need to streamline processes (transitioning accounts especially)
Working on streamlining how accounts are managed by Account Managers. It can be very ad hoc.
Developing a better training system for new hires, especially analysts

It\u2019s relatively common for companies to say they are feedback oriented and transparent, but in reality, they aren\u2019t in the slightest bit. Since I started at Growth Pilots, it\u2019s been super refreshing not only being encouraged to provide feedback and suggestions, but having these items well received!\r\n\r\nIn terms of career development and growth, we recently rolled out a \u201cchoose your own career path\u201d track at Growth Pilots. While we recognize some team members want to continue specializing in the channel of their choice, we also recognize others would prefer more diversification. With that, we\u2019ll happily create a new position within the organization provided there is a business need for that position and the employee has demonstrated why they would be a great candidate for the position. Since rolling this out, we\u2019ve had two employees take advantage of this custom career path. As we continue to scale, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s only a matter of time before we have the next new role at Growth Pilots created!\r\n\r\nAdditionally, last quarter, we announced a cross-channel position called Client Strategy Manager. With that, Senior Account Managers who have mastered their channel of choice, are interested in exploring the opposite channel and would like to be more strategy focused, are given the opportunity. We currently have one employee in this position and one more who is transitioning over the coming months!\r\n\r\nIf you have any further feedback to share, please don't hesitate to email me directly at stephanie@growthpilots.com.\r\n\r\nAll the best,\r\nStephanie\r\nPeople Operations Manager", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]

A Refreshing Company Culture
|
|
-> Professional excellence without micro-management
-> Prioritizes actual competence in our marketing initiatives for the sake of serving the interests of our clients over simply maximizing revenue at the expense of our partners (one of the reasons why GP has the great rep it does)
-> No BS environment means emotionally healthy feedback loops within a supportive atmosphere
-> Always an opportunity to grow and learn
-> Work hard, play hard mentality
|
-> No 401(k) match
-> The typical ups and downs of a start-up feel culture, from managing what it looks like to scale to having a more scrappy mentality. This has both its pros and cons!
