Toxic toxic toxic - Recensione dipendente - Marketing presso Epsilon

You’ll be forced to work with outdated equipment and managed by people desperate to relive the advertising hay day of the 1990s. If you need support, you won’t find it in management, because they’re either “out of office” or too “busy” to care. They believe that if you don’t like the toxic environment they create you can just leave, rather than create a sustainable modern work environment. The computer you’re issued isn’t one or two years old, it’s 4-5+ years out of date and they fill it 3/4 full with security software making everyone find other storage solutions for projects. Good luck opening two software programs because you’ll probably get an error message. And IT? Well they do their best but that resource is spread thin and they might not actually know how to solve your problem. And that’s just if that position is staffed. Projects come fast and from account teams who aren’t properly trained. They have no idea how to negotiate with the clients or how long any creative project will take. They’re usually young and hungry but left to figure out the industry for themselves, which usually leaves the creative dept in the lurch. And the creative team, they are overworked and treated simply as the rowers of the boat. Management thinks that if they’re not in their seats, then they aren’t working. This used to be an agency great for young professionals to get their feet wet, but if you work here you’ll drown.
