This company will be out of business by the end of the year. - Anonymous employee Captiv8 Employee Review

With over 20 years of professional experience, I can confidently say that my time at Captiv8 has been the most challenging and disappointing experience of my career. From the onset, the company has demonstrated a lack of transparency and integrity, often setting employees up for failure and lying to brands and influencers about payments. During my tenure, I witnessed instances where employees were misled about their performance and subsequently laid off under false pretenses. The company's financial instability is evident, and there are concerns about the allocation of funds intended for creator payments. Instead, significant amounts are spent on extravagant expenses, such as chartering private jets for film festivals. The management at Captiv8 lacks competence and effective leadership. There is no investment in leadership training or the development of a positive company culture. The environment is characterized by gaslighting and toxicity, which has a detrimental impact on employee morale. I am relieved to have moved on from this company, as the experience was akin to being in an abusive relationship. Based on my observations, I have serious doubts about Captiv8's sustainability beyond 2025. If you are an employee reading this and every time there are layoffs, you are happy it wasn’t you, you are in denial and you’ll be out of the job soon. If you’re a brand or influencer reading this, captiv8 has no money you’re not getting paid. they are using your invoice payments for other things. Like past due invoices from a year ago. There are multiple legal threats from brands and creators every day for nonpayment. Captiv8 is a dumpster fire on top of the Titanic.
