Life at Rain the Growth Agency
We’re an independent, flexible-first, woman-led agency. So doing things differently is part of who we are. We’re a mix of hard work, human kindness, innovation, and big fun. Check out some of the humans behind the magic.

Favorite part of our culture
“Even though we work remotely, people actually go out of their way to get to know each other! From casual chats to checking in on each other, our team builds culture while allowing for a flexible work environment. And our employees in Las Vegas get together in person as well.”
Project I'm proud of
“I am proud to be helping start the new Data Visualization team at Rain. Visualization of our client data through dashboards and reports is a large task for the agency, and I have been excited to be part of this process for the agency and give this a unique focus.”

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.”

“The flexibility with our working hours and the emphasis on work/life balance. In the remote world, understanding when and how your team works and accommodating that creates a calm, inviting workplace to come log onto every day.”
Project I'm proud of
“The development of process, templates, workflow, and sophisticated search strategies. With a wide array of clients across a myriad of verticals, no day is the same and neither is the approach to strategy. This cultivates a workplace that pushes us to think outside the box.”

Favorite part of our culture
“As a digital nomad, it was incredibly important for me to find a flexible job that would allow me to work from anywhere while on the road. Rain's flexible-first work environment has given me the freedom to pursue my dream of travelling the country and getting out in nature, while still being able to have a consistent and engaging work community. I'm so thankful to have a job that not only allows me to pursue my dream lifestyle, but also supports my professional growth!”
Project I'm proud of
“I've recently gotten the opportunity to play a part in the Dr. Squatch paid social body wash activation, which has exposed me to new channels and given me the opportunity to work with an all-star team. It's a fast-paced account and I've learned a lot from being a part of it!”

Senior Data Operations Specialist
Minneapolis, MN
Favorite part of our culture
“I love that the agency lets me do what I love with numbers, the way I want, in my oddball unique way: seeing how those numbers play out, where they find their rightful homes, how they interrelate with processes, and in the end paint a picture of what is actually happening.”
Project I'm proud of
“I've loved being a part of the nuances and intricacies of the ongoing development and enhancement of our Tracker media tracking business system over so many years. I am so proud of the unique brains and approaches of each person who plays architect in our systems.”

Favorite part of our culture
“There is a Slack channel for everything! #dodgers, #catchat, #hiking-in-rain, #soccer, and the annual #halloween channel leaves me with no shortage of "water cooler" conversations.”
Project I'm proud of
“I'm so proud to see how the work we do actually has a positive real life impact. I've attended some of my client's grand opening events and met many wonderful seniors who were in attendance from Rain's marketing efforts. Shoutout to the "Durham Divas" senior cheerleading squad!”

Favorite part of our culture
“Being part of the same CREW means helping each other head in a common direction and achieve goals together. I appreciate the agency culture that enables this—and the transparency in all areas of work that it makes possible.”
Project I'm proud of
“We work with clients who innovate and achieve success through smart strategies and new technology. It's fun to tackle new analytics challenges in emerging categories like virtual reality and OTT because it lets us push the boundaries of traditional marketing and measurement.”
“My favorite West Coast Media Planning tradition is our end-of-week virtual meeting called ‘wins.’”
— Perlita, Senior Media Planner
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.
