How to waste years of your carreer.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Two stars soley for the positive atmosphere amongst the colleagues - mostly driven by a "hey we are in this together".
Kommunikation
Pretty standard - Townhall meetings, bi-annual leadership workshops, teamlead meetings etc.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Highly skilled colleagues, helpful and respectful with each other. Flat hierarchies amongst the levels below the management.
Work-Life-Balance
+ Home office possible.
- Work needs to be done. No matter what. There is 0 overview or controll of the ressources available which can lead to many hours of unpaid overtime.
- Can involve a lot of travelling across Europe or even the globe. Compensation days can be requested however you'll sometimes will have to fight for them.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Intransparent, erratic, no reasoning or explanation behind decisions, controlling even in the smallest details. No true "leadership" but more of classical "boss" behaviour. Be prepared for false promises and being even outright lied to.
The management is celebrating a culture of zero feedback. This way they can always negate your claims for a raise or anything similar.
Interessante Aufgaben
Dynamic challenges, high profile clients from FMCG, fashion etc.. You get the opportunity to accompany projects from the first step to the last.
Gleichberechtigung
I did not witness anything else.
Arbeitsbedingungen
+ Very nice and new office in Cologne
- Office is completely overcrowded with people even sitting in the hallways
- No IT department. So e.g. if your notebook is broken you either fix it yourself or find a colleague that can do it
Gehalt/Benefits
Wage below every standard.
No further added benefits.
Image
+ high profile clients
+ realization of big and impactful campaigns
+ part of the SPORTFIVE family
- internal image within the mother company is bad
- BLRK sees itself as some kind of "know it all esports messiah" when in the end there are several agencies with the same portfolio in the market
- Several projects for clients such as Saudi Arabian state companies
Karriere/Weiterbildung
If you are looking for a starter job there is quite some potential within build a rocket. If you really want to know your worth in a professional environment - don't.
