Culture
“Work Hard, Play Hard” is overused.
Let’s try “Market Hard, Party Harder.”

Life Inside AdShark HQ
AdShark is headquartered in Downtown Fargo, with incredible access to eateries, breweries, coffee shops, and mid-work shopping venues. Our team enjoys an open office format to aid collaboration, and we have a (seemingly) unending amount of celebrations, team meetings, and more to get you connected with our squad.
Here are some other culture-related features that our team loves:
One-on-Ones
Enjoy monthly one-on-ones with your manager, quarterly one-on-ones with our Director of Operations, and yearly one-on-ones with our CEO!
Career Path Charts
Every team member has a career path chart that outlines goals & objectives to rise within the organization to Senior levels.
Unlimited Learning
The company will purchase all event tickets, books, and other resources you desire to do your job better!
Flexibility Galore
Between Half-Day Fridays, Work From Home flexibility, Unlimited PTO, and setting your own schedule - we’re almost too flexible.
Making a Splash in the Community
In addition to making our office as fun & flexible as it can be, our team finds fulfillment in making Fargo a better place too. A group of AdShark staffers banded together to build our Community Committee which focuses on the following areas:
Volunteering
At least 6x a year, our team gets together (during work hours) to volunteer for an area non-profit or charity.
Sponsorships
We provide in-kind sponsorship and monetary contributions to various non-profits and organizations around our community.
Event Attendance
With so many great events being provided by FMWF Chamber, AAF-ND, Emerging Prairie and more, we want our Sharks to get out and network!
Education
Our team is connected with every college & university in the F-M area, and likes to go out and provide digital marketing education to relevant classes!
Have an idea for a community collaboration? We’re all ears. Reach out below to be connected with Justin Monroe, the head of our Community Committee.
