Bewertungen für Powell Tate

Pros

I loved working with my fellow interns and those that worked full-time . I also loved the intern project. I learned a lot about a campaign from start to finish.

Kontras

Work flow was pretty up and down and work-life balance was hard -- even as an intern. My friends that work there now are also not compensated that well.

Pros

Amazingly talented and diversely qualified group of people, clients which include some of the most recognizable brands on earth, and a global network of resources and individuals that blow our competition out of the water.

Kontras

Clients and teams are really a crap shoot. A good manager and some interesting accounts can really make a world of difference, but unfortunately senior management doesn't have time to make sure mid-level and junior staff is being trained or supported. As a result, many can expect long hours, low pay, and little recognition for the privilege of working for and among "the best."

Junior staff deserves a voice. We are professional comms folks and we don't follow the advice we give our clients. Survey the staff, listen to what they have to say, and make them feel heard.

Pros

Opportunity to work with multiple teams on multiple accounts. The office's energy was positive and ideal for completing work.

Kontras

There seemed to be a lack of direction at the Director level within the organization. There also seemed to be tension in the office between different members.

Pros

It's a great place for creative people. Leadership there has actively created a positive work culture that I have not found in other offices in D.C. Hard work is rewarded.

Kontras

It can be easy to become overwhelmed, especially if you're on too many accounts. Can be difficult to leave an account you don't like.

Keep doing what your doing.

Pros

Good team, creative, values based. Has lots of good work, good accounts. Good leadership.

Kontras

Lower end of PR agency pay scale,

Pros

Account executives involved the interns immediately. We were doing work on the biggest clients and it was one of the best working environments that I've ever been involved in. They care about their interns and it shows.

Kontras

Like any other internship, you'll do your fair share of calling people, researching, and doing the ground work on a PR campaign. Not a real complaint, just an aspect of the working world.

Keep up the great program.

Pros

Small teams. You interact directly with your supervisor daily. You interact with top execs in the company daily. You interact with the president of the company. It's a family. I was hired as a mere summer intern and I'm meeting these amazing professionals and learning from them daily. I was expecting the usual intern experience where I'm practically invisible. Not at Powell Tate. Hands on. Real experience.

Kontras

I have no negative remarks about this company.

Honestly, I have no advice yet for management. They are doing everything right by me.

Pros

good client roster looks good on your resume you'll learn a lot professionally

Kontras

long hours, lots of tedious work junior staff at complete the whim of senior staff (and their egos) some funny business goes on between some junior and senior staff

Rat an das Management

juniors are in a vulnerable position. be aware of what goes on between jr and senior staff.
