Pros

The London team is an inclusive, diverse and smart bunch of people, bringing fresh perspectives on A LOT of social good work taking place at the moment. Most recently, it feels like the team has been empowered to be committed to looking out for each other, building each other up & to stand up for the quality of craft for our clients. Long may this environment continue!

Cons

As with many, most creative agencies, the open plan nature of the small office - accommodating a team of about 18 - can have its downsides when you need to find some focus space, however flexible working nature and the trusted ability to ‘Work From Home’ / or wherever you need to be, goes some way to make up for this.

Pros

Amazing coworkers Decent benefits Work from home Cool clients doing huge projects

Cons

This place will suck the life out of you. After a few questionable upper management decisions, layoffs had really run this place below ground. Beforehand, though, was a clear indicator of things going downhill. Teams burnt out and stretched thin. Project managers doing their best to accommodate, despite being stretched thin themselves. Upper management not doing anything to help. There is one review I read here during my first few months that stated this place is sexy and promising on the outside but the opposite inside and now I can see why. You will be micromanaged and gaslit into thinking you are a terrible worker here. Little to no real professional advice, they literally just expect you to do 12 hours of work in 8 hours (not to mention the insane amount of unpaid overtime you’ll be doing). Steer clear of this place (at least until the figure their sh** out)
