Great work culture, but demanding clients and hiring issues - Anonymous employee Cherry Advertising Employee Review

Great social side of work Great social events Brilliant office Good location

Lower end of scale for London pay

Honestly, the best thing about Cherry are the people. Genuine, friendly, good hearted. I never thought I would say this but I feel like I'm part of a family - as cringe as it sounds. You get to work on some great accounts. And as it's such a big company, there are many different areas you can move to if you want a change. You're listened to and your opinions are valued. And many great mentors to learn and grow from. Work-life balance is great, you're told off for working a minute past 5:30, and having a life outside of work is actively encouraged. Love this place which is why I've been here such a long time

No place is perfect unfortunately. But the positives of working here far outweigh the cons: - Has the typical white males in leadership and senior positions set up. They also tend to get rewarded more for doing less - This is a big one that I really hope Cherry can change moving forward: talent is not rewarded so they leave. Those who are super talented, that go above and beyond, aren't rewarded as they should for carrying more of a workload and responsibility than others. It's unfair and they usually have to hand in their resignation for change to happen. The quality of people remaining has dipped as a result of not doing more to retain those who are talented, which can make for a difficult environment when everyone is not pulling their weight. A real shame as the company hs so much potential
