Pros

— WFH Wednesday — Events and perks

Cons

— Unrealistic workload expectations with tight deadlines — High-pressure environment due to demanding clients and overpromising by account managers — Disparity in pay, with new account managers earning more than long-standing senior designers — Consistently high staff turnover — Leadership dismissed pay rise requests while casually joking about personal speeding and parking fines — Often disrespectful behaviour from leadership

At Guerrilla, we’re proud of our fast-paced, creative culture and the strong, long-term relationships we’ve built with both our team and clients. The review shared does not reflect our recent team history or the feedback we consistently receive, with salaries set competitively, reviewed annually, and supported by significant investment in training and development. Our average tenure and turnover remains aligned or better than industry standards, and exit surveys show 100% of departing team members would work with us again and recommend Guerrilla to others.

Pros

- A joy to come into work each day due to the very positive, empathetic and inclusive team. - The work itself is really interesting, with some great clients and projects to contribute to. - Yes, it can be fast-paced, but work/life balance is genuinely prioritised here. You’re not expected to constantly work overtime, and if your list is over-capacity, the production team will actually support you to alleviate stress. - Workplace flexibility, including flexible starts and WFH Wednesdays. You can also apply for more WFH days throughout the year. If you or a loved one have medical issues, they’re happy for you to WFH with no zero pressure or guilt. - Fantastic management team and HR support. - Zero toxicity. - Professional development and training opportunities. - Team events and activities. - Friday drinks and snacks. - Free snacks all week, and a bougie coffee machine for the caffeine lovers. - Dog-friendly! 🙌🏼 - Tech-forward and progressive. - Relaxed environment and lovely office space in Burleigh.

Cons

- The work can be up and down, as is normal with agency life. Some redundancies have occurred in 2025. - Some roles have less opportunities to grow than others, just depends on your specialisation.

Pros

Amazing team of talented individuals working together, supportive of each other by sharing their knowledge and experience, with plenty of laughs along the way.

Cons

The advertising and marketing industry is facing some pretty big disruptions with rapid developments in AI, but this presents just as many opportunities as it does challenges, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!
