Great culture and Nice people - Design Intern Vaudeville Ventures Employee Review

Everyone was eager to help and fosters a learning environment Great company culture Tons of opportunities to work with different clients

The internship structure is a little unclear. Sometimes there is no clear direction

- Exposure to a variety of clients - Opportunity to take on a variety of roles - Extremely fast paced, in a way that will prepare you for any different job's craziness and teach you to appreciate the beauty of process and order - A commiseration among the employees trying to juggle a million things - Good work/life balance for the most part. PTO when you need it, ample vacation time and good health benefits

- Direct management is extremely hostile and aggressive. Creates a work environment that's untenable and bad for your mental health - There just isn't the manpower or expertise necessary for all the promises that the company makes to clients or prospectives. Very regularly just a guess job drafted up hours before delivering it to a multi million dollar company that is expecting researched, carefully considered insights. It can feel like a grift sitting on the side of the phone knowing that everything being said is just made up as one person goes - Gender dynamics are uncomfortable. Direct management is one man often barking at the largely female staff, with a clear preference for straight male employees - Few growth opportunities. You're ultimately reporting to one person who has such a tightly clenched fist around every crossed T and dotted I, that the freedom to lead a project or idea is unlikely
