Project I'm proud of
“Though I am more on the numbers side and far less the direct creative/results side, I am proud to work with teams across the company across every different project in order to get a view of all the great work we do :)”

Favorite part of our culture
“Our end-of-week virtual meeting called "wins." We each get to share a work or personal win and share a story/favorite thing related to the week's theme. It's a great time celebrating all the great work we’re doing and getting to know our colleagues on a deeper level!”
Project I'm proud of
“I’m proud of how our team strategically breaks through the noise by aligning with “of the moment” media and events. I've worked on campaigns that feature sports legends like Simone Biles, Dawn Staley, Sue Bird, and Megan Rapinoe, and household names like Ted Danson.”

Favorite part of our culture
“My favorite part about my team's culture is our love of food, despite not currently having a restaurant or F&B client partner. We have Slack channels, emojis and time carved out in weekly meetings, all to talk about our food escapades.”
Project I'm proud of
“I'm most proud of two high-profile media buys I executed: the first was a billboard in Times Square, and the second was announcer reads in the audio broadcast of a Super Bowl for a former tax client--I'm claiming to be the first Rain buyer to secure a [radio] spot in the big game.”

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)
Toward the goal of a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace (and world), we’re currently working on:
- Developing a set of conscious practices that seek to understand and appreciate the interdependence of humanity, cultures, and the natural environment
- Defining and setting up intentional practices that support belonging and representation in the workplace
- Identifying and eliminating structural and institutional barriers that cause outcome disparities, especially those that impact underrepresented groups
- Challenging the status quo by proactively discussing diversity with clients in creative and audience targeting
Our vision is that everyone who works at and with Rain the Growth Agency understands what DEI means to us and how to apply that understanding to create and maintain an equitable workplace—for the people we hire, the work we do, the clients we serve, and the culture we create.
True flexibility means people-first
People like the freedom of working from wherever is most convenient, or scenic, or peaceful. Or has the best coffee. And being a flexibility-focused agency lets us hire people for what they’re great at, not where they happen to live.
We also genuinely like each other and miss some of the great things about being together. So we’re exploring new ways to facilitate facetime. Like upgrading our Portland headquarters with collaboration and community in mind. And hosting pop-up offices in places like Napa, Las Vegas, Miami…who knows? Maybe even Paris.
Be courageous
We innovate. Participate. We’re not afraid to deviate and we empower others to do the same. They zig? We zag. We have courage. To speak. To act. To try. To be. We’re brave. Because being brave is easy when everyone has your back.
Value relationships
We care about the people we work with and the relationships we build. We’re honest, open and receptive to one another. We have mutual respect, from clients to colleagues to vendors. Then we play hard together. ‘Cause having fun at work isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s a must have. And yes, participation counts.
Commit to excellence
We do whatever it takes, for however long it takes (even when it’s hard). We deliver above and beyond for clients, for investors and, most importantly, for ourselves. And we deliver when others say it can’t be done. We keep learning. Keep teaching. Keep improving. And we raise the bar higher than the moon.
Have a winning spirit
We beat the control. Beat the competition. We push ourselves to be the best. We motivate our troops and move in for the win. Because we know that with great competition comes outstanding performance.
