OLIVER Agency Reviews

HR are not there for the general employee, but to look after the company and managers. They enable a clique and bullying culture. Used to be a really nice place to work. Busy, but fun. Now, though, employees are treated as commodities, not as people, despite 'wellbeing' emails and box-ticking initiatives. No real career progression unless you're with the 'in crowd'. People have been reduced to tears due to HR incompetence, bullying, and bad management, and their stress-levels are ridiculously high. Approach to management (by some) that borders on browbeating people into submission, and is seemingly rewarded and protected by HR.

Infamous for late payment, no respect for your hard work. Terrible benefit packages. Toxic work culture. Their management style is abysmal, nobody seem to know what they are doing. I was a full time employee there and I don't even get paid on time all the time, so I had enough of it and quite after a year; and my backup freelancers told me their payment are constantly being delayed months due to "internal finance restructuring" "bank holidays delay" etc. If you work for fun, avoid it; if you work for money, don't go anywhere near this place.
