Pros

Many of the team are nice and talented, although they seem trapped.

Cons

Incompetent senior management, they aren't leaders No diversity within the agency No one seems in control, creates huge daily stress Feels like an agency from 20 years ago, toxic and controlling culture Brand roster is incredibly dull Feels like agency is dying slowly No real flexibility, this is not a company set up for the future 'Benefits' package is a sham Office is impractical

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, I'm sorry to hear your experience wasn't a positive one. We've worked hard on establishing our values and ensuring we hire and progress based on them, with communication and collaboration at the centre of everything we do. This year at Curious we are working on building a company structure that will allow us to support the brilliant work our team is doing. Please do come back to me directly if you'd like to share more thoughts on how we can improve, always happy to have a conversation and learn. All the best in what you choose to go on to do, Nikki.

Pros

The location is the only thing going for it.

Cons

The fact that this place is still standing truly astounds me. Very curious indeed... The 'Directors' are not only incompetent leaders, lacking in vision and growth prospects; they are also intensely rude and unkind. The website claims that 'Curious is made of the industry’s brightest and nicest people' - in reality is the complete opposite is true. My brief stint there was the most troubling and demotivating period of my working life. The testimonials of others unfortunate enough to work at Curious in recent years seem to suggest that not much has changed since then. My warning to both potential employees and Clients is to avoid at all costs. There is a reason this agency is little-known.
