      Blakely is a joke. A bad one.

      Pros

      There are some good, tenured people there - none of them are in leadership positions which says a lot about the place.

      Cons

      Save for one, practically mute, gentleman, the leadership team is incredibly manipulative, often unprofessional, and overall incompetent. It is abundantly clear that leadership doesn’t care about staff or their quality of life which is frequently exhibited any time compensation is discussed. Free beer, disingenuous compliments and awkward parties at the “president’s” house aren’t going to help pay your bills. Blakely is an absurd soap opera starring a clique desperately clinging to a version of Blakely that doesn’t exist anymore.

      Be Wary

      Pros

      The agency is experiencing ongoing growth and supports renowned clients. The work is also stimulating and meaningful, like many other creative agencies.

      Cons

      Be wary of the highly positive reviews on this site. They are deceptive. Two of Blakely's weakest areas are onboarding and culture. The onboarding process is pitiful, and the culture is often poisonous. Identity politics, radical ideologies, and drama are present within the culture — consider this when applying or accepting a position.
