Pros

People at the company are very friendly/helpful. Great people below all the senior leadership.

Cons

Was at the company for about 2 years and saw around 3 “company restructures” which saw many people left redundant or having to move sector. Extremely outdated marketing tools and methodologies with partners/agencies considering this is a relatively large company. Instead of growing and imporving, senior management made it a point that they want to continue with the current set up and bring people on who would continue with the set up rather than look to improve/grow the marketing space. 0 job security.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are sorry that your experience with us was not as positive as it could have been and we have taken note of the reasons you have given as to why that was. We have indeed undergone a lot of change recently because of how rapidly the industry has changed. However, all the decisions that we have made to reposition ourselves to keep delivering on our promises to customers and other stakeholders, were not taken lightly because of the consequences they had on our people, good hardworking people. We don't want our colleagues to feel like they have no job security or to feel like their innovative ideas are not welcome. So, please let us know what more we can do to ensure our colleagues know that we are committed to empowering them to thrive and grow with us. We welcome your insight via the internal survey linked below. And don't worry, it is all anonymous so you can be open with us there as well. We hope to hear from you soon! https://forms.office.com/r/DMHZrJHppy

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
