Vantaggi
Years ago, Periscope was at the top of its game. It was the shop to work at and securing talent was a high priority. I truly enjoyed my time there and made some of the best friends I've ever had. The work was challenging, but was recognized. If you were putting in the time, it was noticed and you were rewarded. Longevity meant a lot to Periscope. Now that has changed drastically.
Svantaggi
Once new leadership came in in 2015, there was a paradigm shift. We were all warned the change would be minimal, which was ignorant for people to believe. With a leadership change at the top, the tension was high. The leaders who were a part of the larger leadership team were shut out from everything. The CEO faked transparency by sending updates loaded with false hope. There was no prioritization of the departments that brought in the most money. There have been more clients lost in the past 2 years than any agency in the industry, and everyone is operating under the model that what is going on is working. It's not and it's devastating to see what was once a powerhouse completely fall apart due to egos in leadership. Whatever was promised by the new CEO has not shown up. She hasn't brought in new business. It's time for a complete renovation across the board.
