Positive aspects overshadowed by toxic culture and burnout - Anonymous employee LADbible Group Employee Review

There is a very toxic workplace culture among the higher-ups. Creatives are not given appropriate time to do the work and are treated like idea factories — expected to come up with concepts, copy, images, and a polished deck across multiple executions, often in just a few hours, with no designer support at that stage. Frequently, you'll be doing the strategy too. Yes, you can leave on time — but only because of how daily deadlines are structured, not because the workload is manageable. Relentless pitching with zero downtime between briefs leaves no room for inspiration or recovery. Most days you'll struggle to use the bathroom and still feel like you've never done enough. The creative department turnover is rapid. Outside of senior leadership, very few people have been there much longer than a year. People either burn out or get pushed out. You can watch them lose their spark as they join. The company feels deeply understaffed for the volume of work expected, yet the culture is ruthlessly commercial. The way staff are underpaid while the business is so cut-throat about revenue is stark — particularly when leadership's speeches at company events focus heavily on financial targets, which lands as very tone deaf. If you raise concerns constructively, you quickly become the problem. Working there made me want to leave the industry altogether.
