Pros

A fast-paced yet caring and supportive environment where employees are empowered to grow and deliver the very best work! Demonstrating first-hand how remote-first can successfully operate for the benefit of employees, clients and the business as a whole. It's an agency where people can really thrive and by far one of the best agencies I have worked at. As a mother of a young child I feel so proud to be fulfilling that primary role alongside looking after a global team delivering work for some of the most recognisable brands. Going to work rarely feels like a chore and it's the leadership, my colleagues and the culture at C&M that provides that.

Cons

There is nothing of note for me personally but at a push I'd recognise that our fast-growing nature does present an invitation to employees to step-up. For many people this is absolutely where they thrive but naturally that pace is not for everyone.

Pros

I've had a really positive experience working here. The team is collaborative, supportive, and genuinely cares about delivering high-quality work. I've had the opportunity to work on exciting, large-scale events with well-known clients while continuing to grow professionally and take on new responsibilities. Leadership trusts employees to own their work, and there are plenty of opportunities to learn from experienced colleagues. The culture is fast-paced and challenging, but it's also rewarding if you enjoy problem-solving, collaboration, and seeing projects come to life. I've always felt supported by my team, and the people are one of the company's greatest strengths. Pros Talented and supportive colleagues Opportunities for professional growth and increased responsibility Exciting, high-profile client work Collaborative and creative environment Every project is different, making the work engaging

Cons

Like many agencies, the workload can be demanding during busy event seasons, and priorities can shift quickly. Strong organization and adaptability are important, but the experience and growth make it worthwhile.

Pros

The client roster is impressive, and relationships run deep. The team has a strong track record of success with tech clients and B2B engagements. Leadership leads with empathy and trust. Overall, it’s a great group of people to work with.

Cons

The team experiences the typical growing pains that come with expansion. Hiring is thoughtful and methodical, but that can mean jumping in quickly to figure things out with the available tools and limited training. The good news is that someone is always willing to support when needed.
