Thank you for sharing your perspective. While we respect every individual’s right to their experience, we do not believe this review accurately reflects the culture, leadership, or standards at Eleanor. Eleanor was built on an unwavering commitment to excellence, respect, and creative ambition. We take allegations of an “abusive work environment” extremely seriously and have strict policies and procedures in place to ensure a safe, supportive workplace for all employees. Our leadership team brings deep experience from across the advertising, production, and entertainment industries, and many of our employees have found long-term growth and fulfillment here. It’s unfortunate that this individual, who was with us for a short time, didn’t find the fit they were looking for. Still, we wish them the best in their future endeavors. —Team Eleanor

Pros

Jobs that let you travel, the thrill of production, some great freelancers. A chance to see what you’re capable of taking on.

Cons

All the responsibility with none of the perks. It’s no good to work in production for someone who has no idea how production actually works. There’s a revolving door for a reason.

Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear that your time at Eleanor did not meet your expectations. Eleanor operates in a high-stakes, high-standard environment where we ask a lot of our team—but we also provide the opportunity to do meaningful, creatively ambitious work with some of the most respected brands and collaborators in the industry. That pace and pressure aren’t for everyone, but for many, it’s the foundation of great growth. We take claims around leadership and communication seriously. Our leadership team is deeply experienced in both creative and production disciplines, and we remain committed to building a culture of accountability, mutual respect, and opportunity. We believe in ownership at every level, and that includes owning our mistakes and learning from them, together. To those interested in Eleanor: our team is passionate, hard-working, and proud of the work we produce. We thank this former employee for their contributions and wish them well on their journey ahead. —Team Eleanor

Pros

It’s easy to get a job there because there’s so much turnover.

Cons

No work/life balance. Made to work on weekends with zero notice or incentive. Abusive work environment Owner constantly lies to their employees and misrepresents the company to prospective employees in interviews. High turnover rate. New employees receive little to no training, are immediately piled with work , and then are admonished for not knowing their jobs. Disorganized, company time is frequently wasted on tracking down important files between the many different web services the company uses. Owner is an anti-vaxxer and put employees in danger of catching COVID-19.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience at Eleanor did not meet your expectations. At Eleanor, we take pride in running a fast-paced, creatively demanding company that partners with some of the world’s top brands. While that pace can be challenging, we strive to create a culture rooted in mutual respect, transparency, and opportunity. We are intentional about our hiring, onboarding, and communication processes and always aim to improve based on team feedback. Claims of dishonesty or abuse are taken seriously and are not reflective of the environment we work hard to build. We are proud of our team’s talent, tenacity, and dedication—and we know firsthand that many thrive here and go on to accomplish incredible things, both at Eleanor and beyond. We acknowledge that not every company is the right fit for every person. We wish this former employee well in their future endeavors and remain committed to evolving and improving as we grow. —Team Eleanor
