Pros

Cool building. Too bad everyone has to sit in a highly toxic co working space.

Cons

The fault stems from the very top. Mr. Wilcox goes above and beyond to promise clients more than he can deliver (and way more than he pays his staff to produce), champions a VERY toxic work environment/culture and thinks he isn't held to legal ramifications— just to name a few.

Thank you for your review and while we disagree you are free to express your opinion. Primitive Social is a unique place to work in West Texas it has the talent, passion, and desire to be great and compete on a stage greater than West Texas. It is these standards that make it both a challenging place to work but also a rewarding place. Primitive Social is not for everyone and the people that remain employed here are some of the very best. They treat each other with respect and what may have been toxic for one person is a thriving community of super talented people that work in a new open floor workspace where collaboration and accountability push us to aspire for greatness. They are friends, they enjoy serving each other and our clients. With an unlimited vacation policy, work from home days, a weekly stocked kitchen, company lunches and a great team we have to disagree with the reference to “toxic environment” unless referring to the junk food in the pantry. Our CEO is a young energetic visionary and by no means perfect but I think those in the community know him as honest, trustworthy and certainly respectful of not only the industry we love but our clients and their business goals. Primitive Social is striving for excellence and we are still looking for great talent.

Pros

Remote work and friendly culture

Cons

They move people around like a jigsaw puzzle but no one is really all that qualified to do anything. Unfortunately the culture is a Lubbock (smaller town) clique and a little bit of a joke. They think they're primed for the "big leagues" but can't see the forest for the trees. It's hard to take many people seriously here once you see past the "happy culture" facade - if you're serious about growing in your profession, you're better off finding somewhere else to work if you can.
