Pros

The office's location in London is superb—central, convenient

Cons

My experience at the KROW was not as positive as anticipated. Despite the outward appearance of amiable people, there was a pervasive sense of superficiality. The prevalent micromanagement and inadequate support in delegation contributed to a challenging work environment. Transparency and organisational efficiency were notably lacking. Additionally, the monthly "Room To Grow" 1-2-1 meetings, touted as developmental opportunities, fell short. They appeared more focused on adhering to protocol rather than fostering genuine growth or support. Despite the company's claim of being a supportive agency, there was a glaring absence of assistance during overwhelming periods, resulting in an atmosphere rife with stress and anxiety. It's important to note that beyond the issues with management, the HR department itself proved to be highly ineffective. This compounded the difficulties faced by employees, contributing further to the overall unsatisfactory experience.

Pros

A handful of lovely people. A variety of clients.

Cons

- Very repetitive/under-skilled routine - spend a long time on only one client. - Bad management - no support whatsoever, no 1-1 check-ins or goals set to help expand skillset. Managers were not motivating and rude. When asking for simple feedback it will take hours-days for them to reply and sometimes was left on read. No real communication with the whole creative department so most days you are left in the dark about what you will be working on throughout the week. - Discriminative remarks, racist and marginalised from conversations - Juniors are sidelined and undervalued, looked down on. - No real progression opportunities

Hello, I am very disappointed to read the feedback you have posted above on your time at krow. We have been trying hard to build a welcoming, collaborative and diverse environment in the 5 different krow agencies and we have in place a number of initiatives to provide training and feedback to people at all levels in the organisation on everything from unconscious bias to coaching (room to grow as we call it) through to traditional craft skills......but it sounds like this was not your experience of us. We have checked through all of our recent exit interviews and can't find anything that matches your feedback so I am worried we missed you on your departure. We want to make sure we improve and learn and that we recognise when we have got something wrong so if you would be happy to chat to me or somebody from the people team I would be most grateful. Regards. John, Group CEO
