Abusive Management - Anonymous employee Vitro Agency Employee Review

First of all, I'd like to thank Glassdoor for giving us the opportunity to speak out against the true nature of this place. It used to be that employers like John Vitro could get away with their abusive behavior. Not anymore. Here's the deal. John knows that the agency has no competition in San Diego and he uses it to his advantage. When he interviews you, he'll be very charming. But as soon as you move to San Diego he knows you're trapped and the verbal and emotional abuse will begin. If you accept a job here, expect nasty emails, finger-pointing, rumor-mongering, back-stabbing, yelling and non-stop insults. No matter how hard you try, no matter how good your work is, no matter how happy your clients are, John will make you feel completely worthless. The turnover rate in the creative department is higher than any place I've ever been. The only creatives that remain are people who have been so beaten down by John, they've lost their self esteem. They are like battered women who stay with their abusive husbands. It's truly horrible how John treats people. But he owns the agency, so he does whatever he pleases.
