Abhorrent company. Avoid at all costs. - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Equator

The hiring process was a complete disgrace. Taking 7 months from the first interview to start date with barely any correspondence. Regimented scheduling. Every hour is timed down by a scheduling team which has to be obeyed strictly. Therefore there is no autonomy and value to tasks is unweighted. Inflexible working environment. Policy against taking doctors appointments during 9am-5.30pm. Very corporate for a digital agency. Numbers and targets focused, which have to be presented. Organised fun. Clocking in and out etc. Massive focus on hourly billing of clients. Monthly team meeting held over lunch hour (employees own time) to avoid cutting into work time. Strange atmosphere in the office. Almost like speaking can be seen as taboo at times, especially at the start of the week. At points you could hear a pin drop in a room that has 60 people in it. Management cold yet takes professional decisions very personally. General humour that I experienced was very sexual based, often inappropriate and uncomfortable. Low salary. No benefits at all really. Most industry standard benefits would include private healthcare etc. This isn’t the case at Equator. The only benefit is the gym membership where the provider is a client.
