I interviewed for a VP of Brand role and went through three rounds of interviews, speaking with the HR recruiter, the CFO, and the Head of HR (who they call the CHRO). Notice anything missing? At no point did I meet with anyone from the Marketing team. For a senior leadership marketing role, that was a huge red flag. My impression is that there wasn’t actually a senior marketing leader in place to speak with — the team appears to be in real disarray.
What I did get was a lot of HR people trying to speak as if they were marketing experts. It came across as unorganized and disconnected from what the business actually needs. After three rounds, the company ghosted me completely — no follow-up, no closure, nothing. That says a lot about how they operate.
They even told me directly that they lost about 60% of staff when they required return-to-office. Based on my experience, it’s clear the ramp back to being fully functional hasn’t happened.
If you’re considering interviewing here, know that you may be wasting your time. The lack of professionalism, organization, and transparency speaks volumes about how the company is run.
