Elephant Reviews

Very hard to sum up all that is wrong with this place, but I think the most unforgivable issue is the dishonesty. Lies all the time, to clients, internally and during the interview process. Leadership is absolutely atrocious. They have no idea what they are doing so the solution is to blame other people for their own failures. They take no responsibility and act like kids every time something goes wrong. The toxicity gives me anxiety just thinking about it. There's a very well established blame culture put in place, people point fingers at each other without any shame. I thought I've seen it all in this crazy advertising world, trust me Elephant takes it to a whole other level.

- empty promises especially during initial interviews - work hard no reward culture. say goodbye to social life and weekends. reward days are promised but never followed through. - bad leadership. (especially creative lead nyc) he’s an old school masochist who likes to listen to himself talk. a lot. clear favoritism among employees (especially beautiful women). - no career advancement or clear path. mid level management cares if you’re lucky but opportunities to grow are never given. - uninspiring clients and no aspiration to change. - poor attempts to help culture never worked due to overworked employees and terrible clique behaviour. - panic attack’s are common among employees overall: You hardly see a happy employee and I’ve never met anyone who sincerely liked their job there. People high five each other for “getting out”.
