There are too many cons to count. - Mgmt doesn't know what they are doing - They let go or allow strong employee to go - Don't appreciate the hard working individuals -They lack transparency in the company -The CEO is oblivious to the decrease in moral and CFO is rarely in the office -If you are in the good books with mgmt you will lose your way, they manipulate these employees to do things like spy on other employees -A very high school mentality - you are only good if you are part of the popular group -org structure doesn't make sense, directors reporting to directors -employees who join quickly leave - within the span of a week, the entire hr team resigned -employees who ask question or disagree are let go -there is no feedback given to employees nor appreciation -some employees are hired to fix processes and used as a scapegoat -company only has the one client -CEO has favorites whom he gives full control to run things -currently, 10 people are looking to leave the company -developers complain about the tools being outdated -raises are given to employees who are in the good books -the list can go on, as this is just the beginning, but i don't want to waste my time any more. Best thing I did was resign from the company!

Pros

Employees are generally good people, kind hearted and mean well. There’s a strong team environment among non-managerial and non-leadership employees. Occasionally there are some good free snacks available and we get an extra holiday with statutory holidays in the summer months.

Cons

No real direction from account directors, they’re not sure what they’re doing. My account director has blamed me for her own errors on a number of occasssions. The marketing planning team take ideas from the general client service department and passes them off as their own ideas. The CEO is oblivious to the fact that top talent in the company has left the organization and they don’t reward employees who go above and beyond. Company doesn’t care to grow into other industries and doesn’t have the capacity to take on new work, not a scalable organization. My manager is an account director and she doesn’t seem to care about the success of her team. I complained on 2 occasions that my back is hurting and even have a medical note but she refuses to answer my requests for a standing desk or even an ergonomic chair to help my sciatic nerves....just an awful organization. Very disappointed, hoping to find another job soon. This is one of a few organizations where the account directors can get away with abusing their employees because HR is too busy sampling a furniture catalogue rather than improving the company’s treatment of employees.

Pros

They have occasional parties in the kitchen for every imaginable holiday and occasion which results in free food or snacks. That's it ...

Cons

Too many to count: 1) There is a high school mentality to work relationships, which feels quite awkward. There is a definite air of exclusiveness, and many new people seem depressed and bored. Only people who seem happy are the top management because they control it all, and the co-op students because they know they have a way out of it all. 2) There seems to be a change-averse mindset where management will ask for a change or solution, only to reject it down to keep things same, because they cannot handle change. This is causing them to not grow and constantly lose all clients except one. This is a one-client marketing/advertising firm. 3) There is really bad team morale. People who join often quit within months. Entire HR team (seemingly) quit within a week because of their closed door tactics. 4) Management is petty, often picking on minor details and failing to see the big picture. 5) There are no reviews or feedback given. You may get some feedback but it will not be official. There is a general lack of job security and people seem generally scared to speak their mind, to ensure they can keep their jobs. If you are a "yes person", willing to blindly agree to everything, this company is for you. 6) There is a lack of clarity for procedures. Entire teams will often leave within a month, leaving questions about how to do their job plus, plus mystery surrounding why they left.
