Talented Employees Constantly Fighting Chaos
Pros
Some talented and hardworking people across the organization. Opportunity to work on recognizable brands and gain exposure to different types of projects and clients.
Cons
Leadership talks heavily about culture and collaboration, but the actual day-to-day experience often feels disorganized, reactive, and driven by constant fire drills. Expectations regularly shift without clear communication, priorities change overnight, and teams are expected to absorb the impact without additional support. Workloads can become unrealistic, especially for high performers, and there is a noticeable lack of long-term planning or operational structure. Burnout feels normalized. Employee feedback is "acknowledged" publicly but rarely results in meaningful change. There is also a disconnect between leadership messaging and what employees actually experience. Morale declined significantly over time, and many strong employees quietly left because they no longer felt supported, valued, or optimistic about the direction of the company.
