Ventajas

The clients run amazing businesses, the PR team gets clients great press and there are some nice ladies working there. If you're a food or drink business in need of exposure, definitely work with BBPR because they will take care of you extremely well.

Desventajas

Where do I begin. "Training" lasts about a day and needs to be longer and more hands-on with new hires before they're assigned to work intimately with clients. I can't speak for the PR side, but on the digital side it's a lot like high school in the LA office. There's a lot of favoritism displayed. Gossip is another issue, not only with actively talking about people you're in the same room as, but also trashing out other employees working at outside offices such as the Dallas location. Real mature. As for the work-life balance, what is that again? Everyone is more or less chained in front of their computers and smartphones from the beginning of the day to the end of it, to the point where someone will say, "I have to go to the bathroom" and then never get up to go because that means being away from your inbox for a few minutes. (It's okay to not be answering emails every minute of the day!) tl:dr Working there was a lot of running to stand still.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We are proud that in the two years since this review, we have not only continued to grow and expand into new markets with eight offices and 65+ talented, kind and dedicated employees, but we have improved our training program tremendously. We now offer a robust training program that lasts two weeks, or longer if needed, with detailed itineraries, plenty of opportunities for shadowing, and multiple check-ins from management to ensure nothing is being missed. We keep work/life balance of chief concern and have added new programs such as Unlimited Vacation, Work From Home Days, Summer Fridays, Flexible Hours, Summer Vacation Award, Birthday Holiday and more. Bread & Butter has experienced rapid growth (still growing!) in our ten years in business and we are grateful for our loyal and hard-working employees who have evolved with us and contributed to our success.

b&B is a great place to challenge yourself and grow your skills in every sense of the word. I have learned so much about time management, teamwork, leading with a human-first approach, and finding community in your local office.

Desventajas

While the workload can ebb and flow, you have to be a hard worker and enjoy the hustle to do well here.

Desventajas

During my time at Bread & Butter, I experienced internal bullying and an exclusionary “mean girl” dynamic that I had never encountered in any workplace before. The issue came to a head when a private email exchange between a senior Account Director and the CEO was accidentally sent to the entire company. The message included unprofessional and derogatory remarks about current employees—their appearance, clothing, and overall presence in the office. Yes, leaders are human and entitled to private conversations. However, this incident wasn’t an isolated moment of poor judgment. A close friend who also worked at the company witnessed a similar situation in a different office, and she was ultimately terminated. This leads me to believe that this kind of mean-spirited, petty, and belittling behavior is part of a broader cultural pattern within the organization. For young, aspiring PR professionals, it’s worth knowing that many agencies in the industry produce amazing work without engaging in this type of behavior. If possible, I’d recommend seeking opportunities at agencies that prioritize respect, mentorship, and psychological safety.
