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!

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.

"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.

During your brief experience here, you will learn all the things "not to do" which will actually end up benefiting you when you move on to your next ad agency position. (this will probably happen within the first 90-120 days)

- One of the highest turnover ratios in the automotive advertising industry. In 2012 over 15 people (including the entire leadership resigned due to terrible working conditions) - Horrendous reputation in the marketplace from former clients, employees, and media vendors. - Long Hours are expected but it's important to know there will be little to no opportunities for career advancement as the agency has always struggled to keep clients so employee turnover (both volunterily and involuntarily) is extremely high. - Compensation is on the low end of the spectrum, interview with other agencies and you will find that most will offer a more competitive compensation. - The CEO takes Micro Managing to a whole new level, whether its production, media, or account services, be prepared to be micro-managed like never before.
