Great department - Recensione dipendente - Senior Media Planner/Buyer presso OH Partners

I had a great experience working at OH. The work environment, pay, and co-workers were all excellent. If you’re someone who gets along well with others and takes care of your responsibilities, you’ll thrive here. It was genuinely one of the hardest jobs for me to leave because of the supportive atmosphere and the incredible people across all departments, including the leadership team. I only moved on because I accepted a position at a CPA firm that aligns more closely with my long-term career goals in accounting. OH was an important stepping stone in my professional journey, and I’m truly grateful for my time there.

The only downside was that the Accounting department was relatively small, which limited opportunities for upward mobility. Other than that, I don’t have any real complaints.

There are 10-15 incredibly talented employees who go above and beyond in everything they do.

OH Partners looks amazing from the outside, but it's all smoke & mirrors. After about 6 months working here, every employee discovers that it's all a ruse. Leadership is driven more by their own egos than the best interest of the agency. Furthermore, the executive team doesn't actually seem to like the employees. They consistently gossip about them and spend as little time with them at agency events as possible. There is a huge disparity of pay among roles, up to 25% difference for the same role, which can equate to tens of thousands of dollars. Leadership does nothing to address this and salary comparisons are strictly verboten. Managers constantly move employees' goalposts, so you never meet their expectations. They rationalize not awarding raises or promotions by referencing metrics that employees should have been meeting that had never been previously communicated to the employee. There are different rules for each employee, depending on if they're in the inner circle or not. OH continues to hire high-level people who don’t have applicable agency experience, because anyone in-market who does have agency experience steers clear. They’re completely intimidated by intelligence, and end up reading it as insubordination, especially when they don't understand the optimizations that are being recommended. There is no feeling of professional safety; it felt like employees could be let go at any point, on a whim. Stay far away from this place. Or, if you're a junior-level employee, come here to get the title you need, then bounce after two years. Anything longer and you'll feel your soul start to turn in on itself and your entire sense of self-worth and professional competency will be chipped away until there's nothing left.
