Social Media Manager Reviews
What is it like working as a Social Media Manager?
March 2015
Laid Back, Fun Job as Social Media Manager.
Social Media Manager:
Pros: My office is extremely laid back - causal clothing, music blasting, ping pong table and video games in the break room, nerf-gun wars break out occasionally, the atmosphere is great.
Cons: As a social media manager, my job can be a bit monotonous. There is no end goal - no problem to solve - just constantly updating and providing content for the community. This can be hard to deal with as a person who enjoys having spelled-out, specific goals.
