Avantages

Flexi hours; work from home. Sabbatical offered to employees working for over 6 years. Branches in many parts of the world- which is ideal if you wanna work in another country.

Inconvénients

You don't get to work on any of the "juicy" stuff which they always talk about during public presentations. Ultimately, this is one organization which hopes to do new and unconventional stuff but in reality ends up doing the same thing as all other traditional agencies in order to ensure its survival. This is a downsized agency where you''ll end up working over 10 hrs on a good day and they've a book full of reasons to explain why they're not gonna pay you for the extra hours you put in when the truth is much simpler- they just can't afford to! For newbies, there's no one to show you the ropes as the company is too busy trying to survive and there's greater importance given to profits than employee welfare. Of course they let you work from home and even proudly advertize it as a "perk" when in reality you'll end up working even at home and soon lose every other aspect of your life than your job. There's no guaranteed minimum 1st year bonus and people at the managerial-level are constantly stressed out about meeting monthly targets and ensuring their survival. You will be given an electronic leash- a cellphone -when you join the organization. This means that you're expected to be available 24/7 and that you can be tracked (geographically) anytime. Finally, there's a rule in this company that anyone who wants to keep their job has to abide by- no vacations in December as it's the most busiest time of the year!

Avantages

Over the past couple of years, there's been a strong focus on growth in the US which has resulted in consistent builds in momentum. This has meant there's more opportunity for individuals and the team as a whole. The New York location feels like an important hub for System1 again, with most new roles being built from there, while still maintaining the ability for remote work. The NY office has a lot of energy, it's a place that people want to work from, and as such the culture is bouncing back. Updated onboarding and training processes are well structured and thought out - an absolute must for a growing region.

Inconvénients

My personal opinion is that expectations and realities of some roles are mis-aligned. The key to success at S1 is to learn as much as possible and feel comfortable applying research knowledge with clients at any stage of the sales funnel, otherwise it's easy to fall behind.
