Pros

This is one of the first agencies that i've worked for where I feel that i'm cared about no matter what level of team member. The management are putting in a lot of effort to bring a great culture and some great clients. Great incentives including; hybrid working, paid for therapy sessions by the company, 2 month paid paternal leave, day off on my birthday, i can work from anywhere in the world! To name a few.

Cons

That i didn't start sooner haha! I don't want to be the person that says there isn't any, but i'm struggling to say. If there are issues, they're solved proactively by management.

Pros

-Work that actually matters (many green companies & charities) -Great insentives for staff -Leadership that is open to all ideas -Offering digital nomad options (international offices or work from anywhere in the world) The agency is really focused on growth and keeps growing constantly. They are opening new offices abroad and they offer awesome opportunities to people that want to grow and excell. The work is very engaging and the team is always offering support and training wherever needed. For the first time in a while I feel as part of a close-knit group that inspires me to go to work every day.

Cons

-Very fast paced and busy environment -Strict KPIs for performance -Not enough meeting rooms -Poor internet in the office

Pros

Nice location, near a lovely pub. Some nice staff members

Cons

Men and women treated differently - CEO would ask women to dinner and to share a bottle of wine as a reward for completing online courses - don't trust a CEO that has openly admitted to starting businesses before just to meet girls. Questionable and creepy methods - women don't need to flirt to get results. Working overtime was encouraged - some people working until 2am were praised and congratulated rather than told to take a break. Others would be told to step up their game. Supposed to finish at half 5 but no one ever did. Felt awkward to leave at the time you're supposed to. CEO would take on businesses that rival each other as clients just to get the money - knowing that they wouldn't be able to get the results they wanted. Positive reviews are written by the CEO - he also asks employees to post positive reviews also. One overly positive review comes from someone who is very very close to him - go figure. If you don't agree or don't want to work for 12 hours, other employees complain that you can't handle the work - which isn't true. CEO and management openly speak about other employees when they're not there. CEO makes sarcastic comments on Whatsapp group - which you're also forced to join. CEO has tantrums if people can't go to staff outings. You're practically forced to go even if you don't want to. Emails aren't just monitored, they are read without you knowing to see what you are doing. If your calendar says to write for an hour, you write for an hour. Doesn't matter if you haven't finished. If you go past that, you have to explain why. Pay is incredibly low for what you have to put up with.
