High Potential, Low Cohesion - Graphic Designer iCanvas Employee Review

The people & opportunities during my time were amazing. The art space attracts a lot of creative and passionate people that really care about their work and the iCanvas product. Turnover was rarely a problem and the people that stayed longer than a year, really belonged there and made that place special. iCanvas had been fast-growing and outpacing the majority of competition for the duration of my stay. In marketing especially, it was never a dull moment, affording lots of opportunities to do marketing research, campaign experiments, and constantly expand the team into new areas of specialty.

With more people working from home, the office environment doesn’t offer that same level of connecting & creative inspiration.

Rampant Nepotism and Favoritism from management. Management would retaliate when i brought concerns to HR. Management will try an gaslight employees with raises (only employees that got substantial raises/bonus' where those related/ good friends with management. Does not pay anywhere near market rates. Management will promise reimbursement for expenses but then will drag their feet in repayment (6 months) while lecturing employees about "being better with their money" (avoid paying out of pocket, company has it's own CC just to cheap to use it). Claims they are hybrid, however only certain employees can WFH
