VCCP Reviews

A very damaging work/life balance and lack of any real care for its colleagues mental health. Very normal to work until 10pm-11pm most evenings, join meetings over weekends etc. And sadly, as a consequence its very normal for employees to be signed off work due to stress (myself included). Despite the kind words you might receive from your peers or manager when this happens, it doesn't change the way VCCP manages its resource and employee workload upon you returning to work. At the time of me handing in my notice, resource was so tight across the board from permanent and freelance colleagues fleeing (apparently VCCP made such a name for itself among freelance producers that no one would come work for them) - I wasn't sure how on earth it was going to stay afloat. Couldn't be more happier at my decision to finally leave, I didn't know there were jobs out there that actually allowed you to clock off at 6pm.

Zero work/life balance. Bad processes - too much input and personal opinions from leadership. Poor blame culture - feels like a fear culture. Pitches feel life or death and no real reward at the end of it, just on to the next pitch or big project. Over-promise clients which creates inevitable burnt-out of account teams. Feel of panic and manic energy in the air.
