At least 3 times more turnover than anywhere I've ever worked or even heard of.
Probably due to:
Wanton disregard for any semblance of work-life balance
Obscene workloads with unreasonable timelines
toxic community, rotten from the top
Depending on the day's turn-over, it isn't uncommon for mullen to employ more managers than workers, and at least one boss to every bee.
Even with this boss-glut, reviews were mythologically rare and career advancement was a joke. Roles, goals and responsibilities are either intentionally ambiguous, or blatantly irrelevant. The very few promotions I ever witnessed were either political or people who were married to their bosses spouses' friends or business associates.
It certainly appeared that meritorious contributions were counter-productive to a person's career at mullen. Anyone who won new business, received accolades from the industry or commendation from clients was fast-tracked to getting fired or treated so poorly that they quit soon after. I wish this was a subjective, bitter, ex-employee's jaded point-of-view, but I saw it happen again and again, to a dozen or more top-notch employees while simultaneously employees who were losing business and infuriating clients were promoted. It made no sense. If I didn't know how mentally incompetent the 'leadership' at mullen/NC was, I'd swear it was a money-laundering scheme. They seem to be intentionally torpedoing the ship while they scuttle it, capsize it, and run it aground.
In summary,
Barefaced subterfuge and sleazy, drunken-back-room-politics run the show at mullen/NC, literally and figuratively.
If you're looking at an open position at mullen/NC, your chair is well-worn, and with good reason
It's all appearances, and it's all bait-and-switch. All. Of. It.
Until IPG axes mullen/NC's entire top-tier, nothing good will come of this place, don't do it
