Liquid Agency Reviews

No employee matching 401K and benefits are lacking. Upper management is out of touch with what is happening on the ground and lets a few people who are terrible managers dictate the culture and workload. There is no account management, the client calls the shots, workload is not properly assessed, communication is lacking, work life balance is non-existent, and there is no investment in the team structure. There are few key figures at the top who dictates the workload and everyone is expected to follow along. People are burned out and turnover is high. There was a mass layoff at the beginning of the year and new people were e brought on. This could've been an opportunity to start fresh as a team but that is not a priority. Instead they take advantage of the new people not knowing better and when they do call out what is apparently wrong and needs to change, they are shot down.

Unfortunately, the company is a turnstile of turnover. Constant recruiting for new "bodies" to do the fast-paced, grinding work pace required by management pressure placed on healthy profit margins. The mid-to lower level staff pay the price with little let-up in the grind, or a "letting go" of them -- sometimes in multiples -- when the cyclical project workload inevitably ebbs. Also, a revolving door of creative mid-mangers or directors that are swept into the shiny, well-groomed, environment only to be let go 6 mos - 16 mos later. Instead of developing employees, a trade in for a new model is the approach. Woefully behind in digital capability. Most of the digital capability is purchased via freelancers and/or outside partner firms -- not grown within. Oddly, non-transformational for company that creates and executes brand transformation.
