Terrible Place To Work (Toronto Office)

Pros

Most of the perks are provided by another agency. Because we are affiliated with them, we too get their perks. As such, there are zero perks from Reprise Media directly. Only from their affiliation. Although I admit, they are very nice perks. They are: Nice off space Great co-workers Beer

Cons

You will be overworked, underpaid and under appreciated. If you are looking to work for a search agency, look somewhere else. However if you do want to work there, you need to suck up to the leadership team. You aren't recognized by your talent, skill or experience, but by how much they like you. Hard work does not pay off... this makes for a poisonous atmosphere with a lot of politics. Many of us have stayed at Reprise Media hoping things will get better. It is like being in an abusive relationship. You stay even though you are unhappy. When things get a tad better you cling on to the idea of a hopeful future. As soon as you are happy you go back down to being unhappy for a very long period of time.

Pros

- It's part of IPG Mediabrands, access to nice perks. - Christmas Holidays.

Cons

- There's not career development nor proper training. Throughout the period of 6 months, I have not had any performance catch ups - apart from a 10 minute probation meeting after 3 month - nor had I any proper training- all trainings organised were admin based and nothing technical. - PPC is understaffed and there are many clients and unrealistic scopes. An average team has 4 clients, which is a nightmare. On paper, I had 100% working on 4 clients, whilst in reality my client scope is 120% and not to mention other non client tasks (Admin, Internal Initiatives and Mentoring Junior Members of the team); having me working till 8 almost everyday. - High Staff Turnover with most of the new hires being replacements for those leaving and not new roles as a result of client wins. - Management/Senior Staff have the tendency to overlook the crazy working hours we are pulling despite these issues being flagged and raised by multiple members of staff for a long period of time. - There's no distinction between Client Services teams and Technical teams, which creates an extra burden on us. - Incidents of rudeness by a clients are quickly dismissed and trivialised by the senior members as "this is agency life". I have to say, this is not agency life, this is a call centre life. No respectable agency would allow clients to be rude to their employees in that manner we experience.
