Painful Experience - Anonymous employee Vibrant Media Employee Review

Everyone and everything was pleasant and they facilitated career growth

No cons because I love them

Once filled with great and excited people, Vibrant Media had a great culture. It was the epitome of what all companies had in this space (advertising and advertising tech). Fun parties, great comradery. Made many friends here. I learned a lot about business process here.

The original founder and CEO was amazing. Then, they brought in a new CEO and she brought in her people. She was extremely charismatic, and made a lot of concrete decisions, but in the process, KILLED the culture. Unfortunately, the decisions weren't the right ones, and ones that the company couldn't stick by for more than a few months. They couldn't even decide and stick to a decision on what office people would sit in for more than 4 months, much less a real business decision. The company pushed the CEO out, and the rest of her C-Suite. What's left in senior positions now, are people that made it by attrition. No matter how you spin it, growth by massive cuts is not pivoting towards greatness. It's only delaying what's inevitable.
