Vantaggi

Nice location with a canal Dogs

Svantaggi

In my view, this company is not interested in you if you’re a woman in a Lead or Senior role - unless you’re willing to be quiet and comply. I was one of the only two women working in this agency, I saw them try to hire women with years of experience as Senior or Lead to a Middleweight/Lead assistant role. Despite my 8 years of experience in my role, I was not listened to by my lead, I felt micromanaged. I was told my personality was “too strong” (which meant I had opinions because of my experience in my job - I doubt they would have said that to me if I were a man). I designed their online presence: their website, I created the animations and images for their Dribbble and Instagram pages for 10 months before I was invited to a “monthly catch up” in a coffee shop, then fired in a back alley with no previous warning. They broke every piece of government legislation by doing this, trampling all over my rights and dignity. It is also interesting to point out it was their way of celebrating International Women’s day! (which they had no idea of, of course) Elsewhen say there’s no egos in their team, but it’s all about ego.

In response to your review, can we say that it’s always difficult when recruitment choices made in good faith fail to work out in spite of a genuine commitment to try to make things work. However, we should be clear that the business you describe is not one that we at Elsewhen recognise – far from it. Despite this and recognising the work you did during the few months you were with us, we thank you for your feedback and wish you well in whatever you move onto. We hope that you find a role where your skillset and previous experiences are more aligned to what the business requires, as you have a lot to offer to the right role – which of course is the reason we chose to recruit you in the first place.
