Toxic culture from the top

Pros

Some genuinely talented, hardworking and nice employees. For the most part management select good people. In 2022 OKMG had around 30 employees, I believe in 2023 they have under 15. It was also conveniently located right opposite the Mosman Park train station, making commuting from the city very convenient. It is a place where people starting their career can get a job as staff turnover is a regular occurrence. They are a diverse employer.

Cons

A noted shift in culture and business ethics left many of the team feeling 'unvalued, not listened to, overworked, stressed'. While most staff-hires were positive, I believe one hire of a very senior person to sit under MD contributed greatly to the toxic environment. This person had favourites and those not in the inner-circle were not able to contribute in a positive way to the company. They were also talked about negatively behind their backs. Directors have not had much experience working outside of this agency. To their credit that had built a successful agency, but severely dropped the ball and lost the faith of a lot of their original staff who were loyal and hardworking. 2022 saw many staff leave. As another reviewer mentioned, they offered to pay staff to provide 5 star google reviews. This is unfortunately true.

Incompetent Leadership

Pros

The pro of working at OKMG was the hard-working team.

Cons

The business is run by three people with no marketing background and no interest in fostering a positive, thriving workplace culture. The company has gone from about 20+ people to under 5 in the space of the year due to mismanagement. The owner's approach to work has resulted in overloading their team with work due to their inability to resource properly, resulting in their team burning out despite this being brought their attention on numerous occasions by different team members. They have extremely questionable ethics when it comes to running a business, particularly when it comes to quoting work and paying suppliers, and they have paid staff to give them positive Google reviews.

Pros

Great team members, smaller company so high chance of growth.

Cons

Management unaware of how an agency runs, and show lack of professionalism and respect amongst both staff and clients. There is no support, training or listening to the staff members.
