Pros

• Remote work flexibility. • A few kind coworkers trying to make the best of a broken system.

Cons

• The company constantly overpromises to clients and expects employees to lie to cover it up. • No actual tech or automation — everything is done manually, inefficiently, and with outdated tools. • Leadership is clueless, lacks vision, and doesn’t understand modern eCommerce or marketing practices. • Management refuses to evolve, insisting manual busywork is the “best” way to manage accounts. • Client churn is high for a reason — once clients realize the lack of strategy and results, they leave. • Zero accountability, no real structure or scalable processes. • Feedback is ignored, and internal culture feels performative and out of touch. • Training? Career growth? Forget it. • Nepotism is rampant — friends and family of leadership get hired or promoted regardless of qualifications, creating a toxic and unbalanced work culture.

Pros

My specific little team had a good culture, co-wokers and good bosses. But I believe they will be dissolving my team very soon.

Cons

There were some issues before the merger with PLTFRM but things got significantly worse. - No support in big company wide transitions (basically told not my issue to figure out) - My team was constantly demoralized my team from C-suite - No actual fixing of issues, just pressure on employees who have no decision making power - Unprofessional client behavior towards employees was not dealt with on multiple occasions (client got discounts instead) - Nepotism is rampant - Ideas, suggestions, warnings, etc were often ignored - Overvalue of "hustling" aka working until early am hours - Tech was super outdated and caused a lot of problems (getting better) - Over reliance on AI - Forced use of AI when not good or efficient - Promised raises/promotions for years before they actually do - Raises/promotions don't even cover cost of living - Pay isn't good enough for the crap your are put through
