Pros
People are passionate and skilled in digital. The Newcastle office is better because the people are more genuine. People generally seem to be a bit brainwashed given that they stay regardless of how they are treated. Clients seem good but are really random so the real work does not match the vision or ambition. But there are acknowlegements of this at times.
Cons
CEO belittles his employees in front of people on a regular basis. He will fully cut someone down to tears and the next day everyone in that same room seem cheerful and unaffected. It's toxic and manipulative and just weird. Environment is dated and juvenile, not just due to the fake grass, beanbags and plastic animals. It's also the playground mentality too. People are afraid to speak up as only the management has a voice. Playing favourites is quite obvious too.
