The most toxic workplace I have come across.
Pros
Good benefits, meaningful cases, decent pay.
Cons
The marketing department at Singleton Schreiber is plagued by poor leadership, lack of strategy, and a toxic culture driven by micromanagement and criticism. I received no training, onboarding, or support, instead being thrown into content creation without clear guidance or alignment with the brand’s vision. Efforts to implement a data-driven strategy were ignored or dismissed in favor of the CMO’s personal preferences, which often conflicted with key performance indicators. Leadership’s erratic demands and unclear expectations left the team operating in chaos, and we were blamed for inevitable confusion. The attempts of collaboration and alignment with other team members were seen as a threat to CMO's "strategy." The manager could not be trusted due to inconsistent behavior—privately validating concerns and promising resolutions, while publicly undermining employees to align with the CMO. Her complaints about her workload to the team and other departments were never ending. Vendors and employees were constantly fired, as no one was deemed “good enough,” while essential basics like analytics from third party vendors and even keyword lists were withheld due to CMO's secrecy around the brand's metrics. The culture is unprofessional and toxic. One of my first experiences was being shown a recording of a meeting where a manager fired their social media vendor, telling them how bad they were at their jobs, while the person recording was laughing at the interaction while muted. Leadership thrived on bullying and prioritizing egos over results. If you are a creative, driven individual with aspirations to make an impact – RUN, do not walk.
