There is a reason this company hasn't grown, in terms of number of employees, in at least the past 5 years... - Poor management: Lacking in communication skills, poor career guidance, micromanagement, in need of sensitivity training - Horrible company culture: Passive aggression, hire quickly and fire just as quickly, forced (poorly planned) company outings, work trips where you are required to bunk with your manager or coworker, rules only apply when management sees fit, lack of trust in employees, favoritism - Terrible work life balance: Clients are overpromised results which leads to strained teams, teams are small and constantly changing, client meetings are scheduled for after office hours frequently, if you leave your laptop for more than 15 min you are expected to ping the full company—they essentially need to know where you are at all times, understaffed frequently/constantly so team members are expected to fulfill more than just their own job responsibilities - Poor training: Processes are different across accounts—yet you don’t receive specific training or process outlines for each account. So, it’s easy to mess up and be blamed when you were never taught otherwise. New managers aren’t provided enough training, so lower level employees frequently have to step up. - Nepotism is strong: Several of the CEO’s family members work within the company and advance quickly, INCLUDING the HR person, which essentially means no HR department to report anything to - Remote work or not to remote work: They go back and forth constantly on hiring fully remote employees and not. And if you’re a hybrid employee, being allowed to work for a week or two fully remotely is solely determined by how much they like you and who your manager and office head are. - Review never happen on time: Many employees receive their reviews late or never. They are supposed to occur every six months...you're lucky if you get one a year. - Salaries differ greatly: Between positions, salaries differ immensely and with no specific judgement of employee performance to justify the differences. - The agency is almost 100% white, female employees -- girl power and all, but still, severely lacking in diversity

I experienced a lot of manipulation from senior management. Management has been overly trained, and it makes for disingenuous interactions. Management approaches junior employees with an "empathy/challenge" model, which really just equates to a large amount of thinly veiled manipulation of the junior staff. I worked with a lot of incompetent managers who were in and out of the company within three months, which creates chaos on accounts. I was frequently harassed about my personal life and status as a single person, which was incredibly inappropriate. It ultimately played a large role in my decision to leave the company. Work life balance was non-existent. I worked until 9-10 p.m. every night, and every single weekend without fail.
