May 2016
Love nearly everything about my job but feel undervalued.
Marketing Assistant:
Pros: The action sports industry has been a passion of mine since I was a teenager and in many ways I consider the job I currently have to be "the dream job." On top of working with like-minded people who are passionate about the same things as I am, we receive a fair amount of discounts and opportunities to participate in all the activities we love.
Coming in as an intern I had little relevant experience in the work I would be doing, but I had a general idea of eCommerce and am very adept at learning efficiently. Over the last couple years my role has expanded tremendously - ranging from simply reporting on SEM performance & running minor paid social media advertising campaigns in the beginning, to now managing SEM for our brick-and-mortar markets, planning & implementing our promotion email strategy, and more.
The opportunity for growth has been a constant and I am incredibly grateful for what that has done for both the development of my skills, but as a professional as well.
Cons: As mentioned above, my role within the company has grown immensely throughout my time in the office. Whether it was through volunteering or was asked of me I was more than happy to take on whatever responsibility the team need help with. Some of these responsibilities - such as planning and implementing our promotional email strategy - are major roles, and typically carried out by people that are compensated accordingly.
The part that I like least about my job is simply that I feel as if I am being taken advantage of and undervalued with regards to the amount of tasks I have taken on excelled in.
