Pros

-this is a great company if you are looking for an agency only focusing on regional campaign localisation. Pure execution (ads format variation, manage translation agency, etc) and no strategy and no creativity in their projects. 90% of the work produced is

Cons

- employees were treated as disposable items rather than valuable assets. - the projects I worked on lacked excitement and innovation, this agency is only doing the localization of regional campaign making it challenging to stay motivated and engaged. - the company did not offer substantial benefits or incentives to its employees, which left little to be desired in terms of long-term career growth. - There was a noticeable lack of effective management and support. Many times, employees were left to fend for themselves. - while colleagues would often offer assistance in theory, it often seemed they were either unsure of their own roles or didn't follow through on their promises, leaving me feeling unsupported in my role.

We are disappointed to hear about your experience with us. We would have wished to hear your feedback when you were still with us so we could have had a chance to address it and help you grow. Regarding the lack of strategy, creativity, excitement and innovation: we believe it’s up to all of us to ensure these elements are incorporated into our projects and even if the client brief does not allow for it, it’s up to us to surprise them. That’s what makes a great agency and a great account manager standing out! We are sorry that you were not able to express this talent during your tenure and we definitely would have wished for a better outcome! Regarding the focus on the people advice, we believe our agency cannot exists without its people, and we try our best to take care of our teams, for instance we are offering Flexible Working Hours, Working From Anywhere Policy, Medical Insurance, ClassPass discounts, Lunches & Team Building Activities, Yearly Company Trip in Bali (when revenue allows). For each year with us, employees earn an additional day of annual leave, which accumulates. We are sorry that our agency was not a good culture fit for you. We nevertheless appreciate your candid feedback and wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Astrid & Pierre
