Life at Rain
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
“Although I work remote, my favorite aspect of the culture is the commitment to connection, communication, and support! Having questions can sometimes feel daunting in a professional space but my team, and everyone as a whole, have curated such a welcoming environment for learning and contributing to Rain's winning spirit!”
Project I'm proud of
“I enjoyed working on the 'Harry and David' 2025 Holiday campaign! Being new to the company, it was one of the first accounts I worked on that I also had not heard of prior to joining. I briefly researched the company to gain a better understanding of the client and a few weeks later, I recognized their "Moose Munch" and exclaimed "That's my client!" It was nice to witness the product, understand their brand's message, and feel the impact advertising has in an organic space!”

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.”
Hannah
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.”
Mark
Analytics Manager, Data Visualization
Las Vegas, NV
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.”
Lohgan
Assistant Specialist, Paid Social + Influencer
Grand Junction, CO
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!”
Ally
Hospitality & Events Manager
Portland, OR
Favorite part of our culture
“My favorite part of Rain is how many inspirational women I can look up to. Working in a women-led agency has shown me that there is no limit to what we can accomplish.”
Project I'm proud of
“I am proud to have helped the DEI Committee here at Rain expand and create new ways for our CREW to learn about cultures beyond their own. It has been such a great way to meet other CREW members other than the ones I work with day to day!”
Artem
VP, Digital Analytics
Oregon City, OR
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.”
Nat
Creative Director / Production Lab Director
Naperville, IL
Favorite part of our culture
“My favorite part of Rain is the culture and my team. Our CREW values aren’t some cute poster on a wall — they’re the actual standard for how we treat each other and our clients. People will call you out when you’re crushing it, and they’ll call you in when you’re not living up to it. That kind of accountability hits different. And honestly, I come to work every day happy to be here — which tells you everything you need to know.”
Project I'm proud of
“A project I’m really proud of is the creative work I’ve done on SciPlay. It’s the kind of work that actually makes a difference — not just “good creative,” but creative that impacts the client’s business. That’s all I can ask for: doing what I love, helping others succeed, and getting to build it with really great people.”
“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)
A strong workplace is shaped by people with different perspectives, experiences, and ideas. Rain is committed to fostering belonging, encouraging thoughtful dialogue, and creating opportunities for employees to learn from one another.
One way this commitment comes to life is through our employee-led DEI Committee. With dedicated agency support, the committee helps keep diversity, equity, and inclusion active year-round through learning, dialogue, community engagement, and connection.
Creating an inclusive workplace is ongoing work. By investing in learning and connection, Rain continues to build a culture where diverse perspectives are valued, and people can do their best work.
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.
