Rockfish, the award-winning digital media agency founded in Rogers in 2006, has grown to encompass offices in Little Rock, Dallas, Cincinnati and Atlanta in addition to its base in northwest Arkansas.
For Rockfish employees, what’s not to love? It engages in the kind of innovative digital services, technology and retail insights that attract talented milennials. And you want perks and flexibility? Rockfish delivers them. Employee and family-friendly incentives include:
• YouEarnedIt, a points program that enables employees to give recognition to their peers on a public platform in real-time. Points are used to purchase cool items from an expansive rewards catalog that even includes a Ducati motorcycle. (Rockfish spends approximately $80,000 per year on YouEarnedIt redemptions.)
• Two volunteer days off for each employee to spend giving back to their communities
• “Take it as you need it” PTO policy as well as seven company holidays observed annually and office closure at year-end from Dec. 24-Jan. 2
• Real Time Performance Management in place of annual performance reviews in which employees provide feedback when “teachable moments” occur, versus waiting until the annual review
• Generous maternity leave policy (10 weeks paid) as well as paternity leave and time off for adoptions
• Employee assistance programs, free flu shots every year and 50 percent coverage of medical and dental premiums for all covered employee and dependents
• 401(k) matching after one year of employment
• “Dress for your day” dress code
• Friday lunches, happy hours and office events including an annual summer employee appreciation event and year-end holiday party
In August 2015, Rockfish leadership created an unscheduled, impromptu mid-year bonus that was distributed to all employees. The total spent for the bonus was $400,000.
We believe our dedication to attracting and retaining the best talent and providing them with flexibility, a great work environment, and fantastic benefits are what continues to make Rockfish an employer of choice in every market in which we operate.
— Lisa Bridgers, senior vice president for talent acquisition and human resources.
