Agency EA Reviews

Managers are there to teach you, guide you and improve your overall skill set. This is not the case with the mgmt at EA. If you enjoy working lengthy hours for very little pay and hearing non-stop temper tantrums from the CEO, this is the place for you. The environment is toxic. Lots of backstabbing, belittling and frustration fill the four walls of this office. I do not like focusing on the negative, but when it comes to EA, there's not much else to focus on from an employee standpoint. The reviews are personal opinions, but the non-stop turnover proves what a mess this place is.

Fergus Rooney the managing partner, is the main con and the cause of all the agency’s problems. Rooney mocks and insults every person in the agency. He screams during meetings because nothing is ever good enough. This causes unbelievable turnover and leads to work attended by freshmen with no experience scrambling. Then, because the work falls behind, he insults and screams even more. Thus, the majority of the agent life is spent on a pathetic and unnecessary goal: how do we avoid being yelled at for an hour? You only survive if you can sit there and take verbal punishment while admitting how wrong and dumb you are. And, to make it even worse, Fergus acts as if he is the event industry’s gift from God and has grandiose illusions about his agency’s greatness. In sum, 99% of my coworkers were miserable and planning on leaving as soon as possible. That will be you, if you work here.
