Pros

The onboarding program was in depth and readily available. Great facilities in Cremorne. Dog friendly office. Many mandatory social events at work.

Cons

A toxic culture that treated staff poorly, one of the highest turnover in the short three months I was there. Active encouragement to be dishonest to our clients, including Megaphone encouraging all employees to lie about their length of employment with the company to as not to discourage clients (asked to put our LinkedIn start date 6 months earlier than what it actually was). A really unbalanced amount of workload for payment that was the lowest seen in the industry. An approach that see's them massively con small businesses out of money, knowing that they cannot offer their services to better said small businesses. Knowingly over quoting and under servicing clients every day.

Pros

- free stuff - some great employees

Cons

- an insane, unrealistic and unethical workload amount that’s expected. Had really hopes coming here, unfortunately it’s a mess and I can’t see the company retaining clients if it continues this way. There’s no structure, a lack of support and leadership. Everyone is working around the clock (literally), and the quality of work presented is so poor as everyone is so stretched thin - no one can give the amount of care and attention needed for the client. Some great new people trying their best, but I can’t see the company changing their ways. It’s profits over anything. I wouldn’t work here, even if you were desperate.
