Pros

Most employees are nice people and fun to hang out with. Made a few lifelong friends. Good entry level job to gain industry knowledge and move on.

Cons

No solid training or career development. I only had 2 reviews in the 5 years I worked here. Very cliquey. Will only move up quickly if you are in certain department/group and like to brown nose. Employees are undervalued and overworked. They hire young energetic people, and you watch their spark fade away overtime. Turnover is insane due to high stress, low pay environment. Job descriptions are not clear and you will find yourself doing the exact same work as someone higher up than you but at much lower pay/title Company does not trust employees or care about their health/safety. Somehow were deemed essential and forced all employees to return to the office during covid. They think WFH is to blame for low billings rather than the current pandemic we are facing. Advertising is not essential and even if it was, why risk getting your employees sick?

Thank you for your feedback, I always appreciate hearing about each employee's experience. I'm happy you enjoy our Friday policy. I love it too! You are a great addition to our team. If you ever need anything, please feel free to come and speak with me. My door is always open and I’m happy to help wherever I can!

Pros

None come to mind. Some employees are nice people but are locked into this prison for life. If you just need that initial job to get a career going, then enduring 12 months max here is the only pro. But beware, the culture is extremely toxic, so get out before they break your spirit like they do to most others.

Cons

Incompetence and toxic narcissism; lacking ANY sort of true leadership! Too top heavy, only spend their time reviewing this site and only reward/acknowledges their 'dogs'....that is, the ones that still lick the very hands that beat them unjustly. An weird inbred type of nepotism is king here and if you don't drink their kool aid, then you are doomed!

Based on your feedback it sounds like it this was not a good fit for you, and it was probably best that you decided to move on from our agency. We have some of the greatest employees here, and they know how I feel about their dedication and hard work here at Edge. I don't agree with your feedback whatsoever, but I am happy that you've been able to move on to another company, and I hope your experience there is better for you. I will continue to lead our employees the best I can everyday - and I will always be here if anyone needs to address any concerns or feedback that they feel can improve us a whole.
