Avantages
Great teammates, cool clients to add to your resume, MacBook, and Slack,
Inconvénients
The agency sells you on the cool clients and work you’ll get to do but beware, you’ll be given false promises and overworked. As far as upper management goes, they claim to care about mental health but could care less… The CEO just sends one-off slacks about how he cares but you never see anything actionable or of service given to his employees or community. They praise new pitch wins but never staff properly so existing employees have to take on more work while c-suite reap all the profits. Upper management is a mess and they have no clue how to scale growth. They fire people and sweep it under the rug with no real announcements and nor do they care enough to retain hardworking employees. The work at first is appealing but get ready to be burnt out! Getting big names like Netflix, Amazon or HBO may sound cool but who really cares if you’re going to work 60+ hours, weekends, and just get berated in front of your colleagues for the littlest things? The contracts are underscoped because upper management wants to “build” long term relationships, therefore employees are expected to over service and work longer hours in order to fulfill client expectations. Management also allowed certain directors to berate and belittle junior employees over an extended period of time. Little to no action was done for over a year until this person was recently let go. There are still “a few bad apples” who condone this culture but we’ll see how far it goes until people start walking out the revolving door.
