Pros

Easy commute Free coffee Team dinners Nothing else comes to mind.

Cons

The owners of this company have serious anger issues and often take it out unfairly on employees. Just a few of the many incidents here over the years have been throwing hard objects at staff, screaming obscenities, storming out of meetings and slamming doors, intimidating staff until they are in tears, changing policies and rules with no notice to suit them, cancelling bonuses, constantly threatening staff and more despicable behaviour. I strongly suggest to anyone considering applying, not to do so.

Thank you for your feedback. As owners of the company we accept accountability for any negative feelings experienced by our staff, whether current or past. We do have very high expectations when it comes to our staff performing at a high level including proactive service, attention to detail (i.e. Quality work), and taking accountability when errors are made. Our promise to our clients is that we deliver solutions that provide them with measurable business results in the form of more leads, sales and profits. If we fall short of those expectations, clients become upset and if they leave it creates a loss of revenue which impacts staffing ability.

Pros

My co-workers have all been amazing people and great to work with. A very intelligent team who work really well together.

Cons

Temperamental owners. No legit HR dept. Empty promises. A lack of accountability from upper management for revenue which directly affects employees. Yet harsh penalties for employees for subtle human errors. Tolerant of employees having to deal with rude and aggressive clients, for a penny. Plus everything from the previous 2 reviews.

Thank you for your feedback on the team and work culture. This one of our very important core values: Work and Play Together as a team. As a small company, it is challenging to have a “legit HR department” but we do our best with the resources we have and yes we do value our clients very much as they pay for the salaries of our staff. So when staff drop the ball and cost us customers, unfortunately we have to take measures to protect our well performing staff and not lose more customers. It’s never easy to let someone go, but sometimes we have to take measures that are for the greater good of the company.

Pros

They provide good training in digital marketing, excellent training in fact.

Cons

A married couple own and run the business; the male spouse ("CEO") is volatile and prone to outbursts and abusive behaviour in the office. Staff are not well treated and subject to burn-out, scapegoating, and/or dismissal. The conditions could be described as "white collar sweatshop". Also of concern: The owners are (ironically) fundamentalist Christians and have poor boundaries in keeping their religious activities out of the professional environment.

Thank you for your feedback. As owners of the company we accept accountability for any negative feelings experienced by our staff, whether current or past. We do have high expectations of staff and their levels of performance. These have evolved and grown over the years as our agency has expanded. Our Core Values have been defined as: Results First, Proactive Service, Quality Work, Accountability, Continuous Learning, Work Hard and Play Hard Together as a Team. Staff are directly involved in a mutual dialogue to create and/or update the expectations regarding their role. We expect staff to work their 40 hours a week, but have only once or twice in over 10 years have been requested to work overtime, and more often than not ask staff not to put in extra hours to maintain work/life balance.
