Miserable, Toxic, had to start anxiety meds to work here - Recensione dipendente - Senior Influencer Specialist presso Uproar PR

I waited to share this until my last pay check came in, if this shares anything about the company. Glassdoor Review 1 star My first week I knew that I made a mistake. For being a remote PR agency, that prides itself as being a leader in the industry - they know absolutely NOTHING about influencer marketing. None of our clients had a budget to pay our creators. In fact, most didn’t even have a trade. A performing arts center wouldn’t give us show tickets to creators to make content but expected high KPIs on social posts. At one point we even were in talks with a free app. A FREE APP with no budget to contract influencers. Where is the incentive in that? Every client at Uproar was set up to fail, not just for influencers but across the board. Company culture is HORRIBLE. There’s no leadership whatsoever. At one point I handled 10 clients as a team of 1. I constantly had panic attacks, didn’t leave my computer and when I approached my director about bandwidth she said I wasn’t doing enough. In fact, in my quarterly, my CEO said that I should be grateful. About every two weeks I would also get a new client proposal thrown into the mix, where I would have 1 day to put together strategy and discovery. I received no help from my director. She would constantly ignore my questions and shut down any ideas or trends identified in influencer marketing. She was also incredibly narcissistic. Some of the teams also took this approach to work. One of the automotive teams I worked with had absolutely nasty co-workers. Who would constantly belittle and micromanage my work, even though they were in no shape, or form above me in the hierarchy. This has been one of the worst experiences. This agency has no money, makes decisions on a whim, and constantly burns and churns out its employees.
