Vantaggi

I can't imagine there are many better agencies to work at than Silverbean. Great people, benefits, socials and clients! If you are hard-working and determined, there are plenty of opportunities for you, and although the agency is not the biggest in the North East (around 45 people), I think it is by far the best (having worked at and with other agencies). Silverbean has ambitious plans for growth and are recruiting all of the time to keep up with the clients coming on board, but the MD is clear on where he wants the business to go and the sort of people he wants to take it there. There are various areas to work in and a wide range of experts, most of which started at an entry-level position and worked their way up over the years (including myself). Silverbean take great care of its employees and provide a lot of benefits, but the office and socials are by far the best. The company culture is second to none and something that can't be forced.

Svantaggi

Like any growing and fast-paced business, things do get busy and due to the nature of the work, we have to deal with a wide range of clients and people (some of which are under pressure to see results). Not necessarily a con, but you definitely have to be prepared!

Vantaggi

Nice office Good hybrid working policy

Svantaggi

Work load - it’s a company wide issue all the way from executives up to senior managers , that working more than you allocated hours is necessary. Low pay - pay threshold is low compared to the market Progression - very limited progression , the jump from executives to manager to senior manager is extremely high / the frequency these roles come up , is extremely low Very cliquey- if you are not close / respected by certain a certain individual - it is made very apparent and you are pushed out both socially and professionally. Widespread strategy change - company direction and structure changes frequently , without much warning.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear you found the office environment and hybrid working policy positive. On workload, this is something we take seriously. We rely heavily on accurate time tracking from everyone across the business so we can spot pressure points, allocate resource properly and step in where support is needed. When time isn’t tracked in detail, it limits our ability to take the right action - so we continue to reinforce its importance and review workload trends regularly. We do recognise that, as a smaller agency, progression opportunities don’t come up as frequently as in larger organisations. We’re focused on how we can support development in other meaningful ways, even when formal role moves aren’t immediately available. Without having further context on some of the other points you raised, it's hard for me to respond to those meaningfully here. We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best for the future.
