Vantaggi

The history and legacy of the Epiphany brand resonates in the industry, and as such, we are able to work with some of the biggest businesses in the country. This also allows us access to great industry events, insights, and unique opportunity for personal career enrichment. That's about it, however...

Svantaggi

The past decade of Epiphany has been incredible. We had great leadership and were able to break the boundaries of digital marketing, setting us head and shoulders above the rest. We were delivering a quality of work that other agencies could only dream of doing. The past 12-18 months, however, has seen this nosedive... After being acquired, changes in senior management occurring and grandiose promises of growth made, the agency has come totally unraveled. Today; No one in senior management ever leads by example. There is no ambition or excitement anymore. There is no apparent direction for the business. There is no more evolvement or innovation happening. There is a horrible clique working environment where most teams keep themselves to themselves. The rampant blame culture between departments is toxic. Some of the new hires have been utterly terrible and totally unsuitable to carry out their roles. And, ultimately, no one seems to care anymore - not like they used to anyway, it's now just a 9-5 job for most, the culture and family feel is long since gone. And this makes me terribly sad. Epiphany used to mean so much to me. I used to be proud to work here. I used to buy orange moleskin notebooks as I was proud to stay on brand at all times, and I'd always go out of my way in my own time to contribute to industry sites to spread the Epiphany name, but this has all now but left me. Transparency of certain decisions and actions made by the board and the new owners of late is non-existent, and in my opinion many of these decisions have been catastrophic, if not idiotic. As a result, staff old and new, are leaving in droves. Someone needs to grab Epiphany by the horns and wrestle it back to what it was. I don't know who the person to do this is however, as I don't have a great deal of faith in the new leadership at all.

Vantaggi

Genuinely some of the most helpful colleagues you could wish to work with A once decent social calendar (now deteriorated through budget constraints and profit grabbing) An element of creative freedom in how campaigns are executed Some real characters who have a passion for what they do

Svantaggi

A complete lack of parity across departments in terms of employee treatment. Client Services being counter-productive in managing work-load / campaigns and thus not being fit for purpose (either top management doesn't see this or cannot be bothered to rectify it). Poor digital knowledge in a role that requires a real holistic understanding of all channels. Pay that does not match industry standards or reflect the level of commitment expected. They pay as little as possible for as long as possible. Rather than rewarding success and development they look at how they can keep your salary as low as possible. The rule of promotions and pay increases only at set 6 month intervals is not consistent across departments. They leave it too late to reward and thus lose the actual talent that delivers what the client values. Neglect of certain departments meaning morale is widely inconsistent across the business. Management that are in their position through who they know & how cheap they are, not what they know The favouring of internal promotion into board-level positions where department biases are perpetuated & subsequently nothing really changes.
