Terrible Culture

Pros

The pay kept me there

Cons

No shared mission or vision. No executive level support of initiatives. No direction. People are expendable. Heavy micromanagement of menial tasks. No systems or technology. Departments competing to cannibalize each other's tasks. Doesn't listen to partners or managers to improve the business. Culture is shady at best and toxic at worst.

Pros

- I started as Junior Admin Assistant and have been trained well by amazing colleagues, some of them no longer works there. I can confidently say that I've grown significantly, skills-wise, during the duration of my employment. Also, other senior admins are available and approachable to ask for questions. - Great training/resources. Admin team put a lot of effort into making how-to resources - Fast-paced, I enjoy the busy setting - Decent benefits eg. insurance, subsidy for recreation - Decent technology. I've encountered minimal tech issues. Also easy & fast access for remote working. Not needing to bring work laptop home was great and can do work remotely without not much of lag if using personal computer. Able to work faster. They kept adapting. - The partners and managers that I worked for are great. They are respectful. - The right to personal life. Never have I ever felt the need to share my personal life which I appreciate. When requesting time off - I didn't have to say why or what for. - Great office location, great office

Cons

- Office drama have grown. It became so hard to steer clear of it. - Slow pay raise even with increase of workload & positive annual review

Pros

The job itself wasn't very demanding. Partially because there was so much red tape it made it hard to get things done.

Cons

One of the most toxic marketing environments I've seen in my career. Leadership is wildly incompetent which means the teams within are fighting against each other for resources with no direction or referee. People with fresh ideas - or even those who have a voice to collaborate instead of taking orders - are not welcome.
