Web Marketing Experts Reviews

Pros

I have been working for WME full-time for over 2.5 years. Here is my view of the company: It is a fun but also competitive environment. Managers are very supportive and helpful, with an open door policy. Anyone can go to the GM or the MD and ask for assistance. On Fridays we do "Recognition Friday's", everyone has an opportunity to be recognized by other team member for his/her achievement of the week. Team building...

Cons

It is a very competitive and fast paced environment, thus it can be very stressful sometimes, and it is definitely not a place for people who are looking for an easy and relaxed job.

Pros

I am both a current and a former employee of Web Marketing Experts. I originally started working in this company in June 2012. I recently came back in January of this year, I can clearly see that WME has grown in this time to a well rounded and integrated digital marketing company. The culture was always great but the communication between departments wasn't always smooth. It's great to see this has been redesigned into...

Cons

I have only been working here for a few months and I have not as yet found any significant cons.

Pros

Great team, very friendly and fun. Nick (CEO) was a mentor to me while I was working there and I learned a lot from him that has helped me in subsequent roles. I was well paid in my role and felt my targets were all achievable. Overall I really enjoyed my time there and grew a lot in my skillset. I've kept in touch with various team members from WME since and have been into the office to meet a few of the new staff. Highly...

Cons

I worked there at a time of rapid growth, and wasn't always able to devote as much time to existing clients as I would've liked. As I was leaving the company though, that issue was addressed through growing the Accounts team.

Advice to Management

Trust in your staff, keep up the high energy and be open to feedback.

Pros

I was thoroughly immersed in digital marketing years before I was employed at WME. The Staff: WME helped me continue to grow my skill set in digital. The company has over 160 talented staff all on 1 level. So as you can imagine, it's a massive talent pool of extremely passionate Gen X and Y workers. The Managers: Let's start with the Founder... Nick encourages his staff to continue to further develop their personal...

Cons

Kitchen can get messy at times.

Pros

Left to go travelling, but I was sad to leave a fantastic team with approachable management. Great opportunities for career progression. I started at WME with little practical work experience, thankfully the role allowed me to refine my craft. I would work at WME again

Cons

The kitchen. By 3pm it would get very messy

Pros

Its good for people starting in the industry.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations from all departments. Overworked. Under-payed. Under-appreciated.

Advice to Management

"Take care of your employees and they'll take care of your business" - Richard Branson

Pros

Convenient location, easy to make loads of commission if you're ok to unethically sell and love hearing all about '2-3 hours talk time per day'

Cons

Unrealistic expectations with no training. All about KPI's and company mentality is that it's your honour to work there. High school environment. Awful culture. Have never worked in a worse place before. Nick Bell is so unethical, talks down to people who are underperforming, won't talk to you if you're not a 'yes person'. No structured training. It's considered poorly if you take lunch at all (contract says 1 hour)...

Advice to Management

Get a proper team training, do some team building activities and care about your staffs opinion - Nick you're a smart man and you've done well but your attitude doesn't inspire action, it demotes it.

Pros

Amazing culture and HUGE growth in skill-set after working here for 5.5 years Ideas were always welcomed and if it makes sense it is rolled out company wide within 24 hours All profits are re-invested in the business, processes, marketing and staff training If you work hard, you are rewarded with opportunities in the business and financially Working at WME had me travel to USA, Hong Kong, Macau and Indonesia Managing...

Cons

Staff can get a little carried away Friday night drinks It was extremely hard to leave the company and the great relationships with staff/ friends Tough industry and very competitive which can be stress full to those that don't have resilience (People forget this when joining)

Advice to Management

Encourage international senior managers to catch up more and share ideas for global growth
