Pros

- Early finishes on Summer Fridays. - Team lunches that are paid for.

Cons

- Lack of communication with Senior Management. - Pointless feedback/ reviews. If management doesn't like you they will pick up on the littlest things that have no correlation to your work (E.G "you don't fill a room with energy". - Toxic employees: (In a client meeting I helped a SEO manager answer a client question by showing her the Google Site Speed to Revenue calculator. Before I even got back to my desk, this manager had already shared the tool in the company Slack channel, without giving me any credit). - Cliquey/ suck-up culture (they want you to be a certain type of person). Just look at some of their job descriptions and you'll see what I mean. - Quality of SEO work isn't actually that great - they want you to up sell links to corporate clients. - Their SEO audits for some clients were literally just "oh you have a small website", here are recommendations to build a bigger website and it will cost you £X more for more information, and we can only provide you with 15 hours of work a month". - Some employees look like they do nothing whilst others are worked to the bone.

Great opportunities, smart & fun people (who are also very nice!), lots of room for growth/learning and taking initiative to start new projects

Nature of agency life makes client engagements and work load a little unpredictable, although new management is making a good effort at steady biz dev

Pros

Flexible workplace. Company that prioritizes tasks and being on meetings > micro-managing what employees are doing for every hour

Cons

The business has been having hard financial times as of 2023 so no pay increases for 2024. This decision has pushed most senior-level employees out the door and work has piled onto everyone that is left. Feels increasingly hard to "grow" at Ayima
