High-Growth Agency with Strong Leadership and Real Ownership Opportunities - Recensione dipendente - Manager - Marketing and Operations presso Interdependence

What stands out most is how much people here actually care. About clients, about the work, about each other. That's not something you can fake over time, and I've seen it consistently. When things get hard (and in PR they do sometimes), people at all levels roll up their sleeves and dig in together. There's a team motto, "We can do hard things," and it's not just words. I've watched team members from all levels jump into the weeds alongside everyone else when a challenge hits. I feel challenged every day, but I also feel supported. That combination keeps me engaged.

This is a performance-driven environment with clear KPIs for every client. Personally, that motivates me. I like knowing what success looks like and working toward it. But if that kind of accountability feels like pressure rather than clarity, it may not be the right fit. The company also leans heavily into AI as part of how we work. If you're resistant to using AI tools, you'll probably feel out of step here.

The role is remote and there have not been layoffs. If you stay, the PTO accrual can be decent.

Trust the negative reviews, they are all true and the reality of working at Interdependence. The recent positive reviews are from senior leaders trying save face and balance out the negative ones. There are so many issues at this company I could write a novel, but the number one issue is the lack of support across accounts. I joined Interdependence because I was sold on the team structure, but that “team” has mostly been me. The success or downfall of the account falls on one person because anyone above does not actively contribute to the account. You are constantly overwhelmed and expected to always perform. If you ask for help, you will be ignored or scrutinized. Clients are unhappy majority of the time and have unrealistic expectations because the sales team promises them the world. There is no understanding from leadership on how difficult it is to get media interest and somehow manage everything across 8-10 accounts. Junior members are doing 99% of the work. I have no idea what leadership is putting in their timesheets at this point because they are never accessible or helpful. Horrible leadership is driving this place to the ground. Employees are viewed as machines, especially with the pushed use of AI. Run as far as you can from Interdependence.
