Red flags.....stay away - Anonymous employee The Clear Blue Employee Review

Nice boss and flexibility in schedule

Stale donuts on Friday mornings

I would never recommend this company.

I was forced to write a positive review for Clear Blue when I worked there. Several of us were. I deleted that reviewthe day I quit. Do not take a job with this company. Go on LinkedIn. Look at the owner's profile, call her previous agencies and clients and ask them about her. I was literally warned before I took this job and wish I had listened. The owner has wild mood swings and paranoia. She can be terrifying when she screams and belittles employees. She is no longer passionate about the work and only writes in metaphors and puns. As a manager I was told the policy was to demote employees they wanted to get rid of so they would quit, rather than fire them so as to avoid paying unemployment. Their fee structure is significantly higher than at other agencies, 30% (sometimes higher) vs. the industry standard of 17-20% plus they build in "contingency fees" to every project and never reimburse it when nothing goes wrong. Do not work for these people. It is a sour, scary, sad environment.
