Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

At the time I was at Granny there was still an active and talented Creative team. Only a few remain and I hope they find their way out soon.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

I was fooled in my interview process that the Granny values around open-mindedness, creativity, and diversity actually existed. I truly believed in and trusted the management board, whom I soon found to be deceitful and manipulative. There was severe mistreatment of my team. I tried to speak up and offer professional strategies to fix issues but was quickly labeled a problem, without discussion. The same goes for anyone who tried to show the reality of Granny culture; you would be marked and severe lies and stories would be gossiped about you until they remove you without any concrete reasons. The management and account team are much more creative with their passive-aggression and dishonesty than they'd ever allow with any of their actual client work. There is a 'mean girl' culture of bullying and if you are not on team mean girl, they'll find a way to get rid of you and gaslight, torture you in the process. If you stand for solid creativity, values, and work-life balance, you will not be happy at Granny. If you kiss up and kick down, you will be rewarded and promoted.

What is really scary now: they are trying to suppress the voices coming out about the abuse. Even though a large number of people have reported their poor behaviour. They are spending more time fighting negative reviews than learning how to treat their team, or taking responsibility for their actions. This shows that nothing has changed, and petty behaviour and game-playing is more important than actually bringing meaningful change. It is continued harassment. Sad.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I have never witnessed such dishonesty, political power-plays, or incompetence as I have with Granny. Management pretends to be the victims in the problems they themselves create. The lack of insight and maturity is deeply disturbing.

The least the agency can do is start believing people who are telling the truth, to save the business. Read the writing on the wall, in spite of your egos. Stop enabling, promoting, and supporting the people destroying your culture.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Bullies. Inconspicuous, manipulative, bullies - who always get what they want.

Image

Their entire image is a very convincing facade at first, but you soon realise how hypocritical it all is.

Work-Life-Balance

I worked a minimum of 50 hours a week, and during pitches between 60-80 hours a week. Only to be told to change everything again at short notice, because there are no processes. Expect long hours without appreciation, and a constant "you haven't done enough" attitude no matter what you do. You will be contacted at all hours, and people will literally try to have meetings within meetings.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

The only way to get anywhere in Granny is to kiss up, and kick down. If you value integrity, you are in the wrong place.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

There is no consideration for employee well-being, mental health, feminism, environment, diversity or "eye-level" communication, in spite of what they say their values are.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

There were some wonderful people there, but most have now quit in disgust or fired unfairly.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Ageism, and no respect for colleagues with experience. In fact, the bullies in the team think they should have stronger titles without any skills or experience to back them up.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Abusive, unfair and the source of most problems. Micromanaging and absent at the same time.

Arbeitsbedingungen

The office is like a metaphor for the agency itself. Beautiful, as you'd hope the agency to be. But empty and filthy in all the wrong places.

Kommunikation

Communication is opaque if available at all. Professional Gaslighting.

Gleichberechtigung

I expected a more diverse, open minded culture and even feminism. All I saw was women actively hurting other women and colleagues being mocked for trying to uphold boundaries or mental health.

Interessante Aufgaben

Awesome clients (most of which are gone now), but no chance to do any quality work for them due to lack of process and interference.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The art team was amazing and everyone in this team was supportive and understood that we are actually professionals who do this work. That is about as far as my positive experience goes.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Working at Granny was an incredibly challenging experience that I feel compelled to share with others. Unfortunately, my time at the company was marked by an unhealthy work environment characterized by bullying, manipulation, and gossip.

One of the most significant issues I encountered was a pervasive lack of respect for open and inclusive communication. Attempts to contribute to conversations were often dismissed or ignored, creating an environment where certain individuals believed their tenure at the company elevated them above everyone else. This attitude was both palpable and damaging to the overall team dynamic.

The culture at Granny seemed to foster an environment where some long-term employees felt entitled to treat others poorly, perpetuating a sense of hierarchy that had a negative impact on collaboration and morale. This behavior extended beyond mere workplace dynamics, as it was indicative of a broader issue with the company culture.

One of the most disheartening aspects of my experience was the apparent lack of interest from the leadership or board in addressing these pervasive problems. Concerns and issues were routinely dismissed, and there seemed to be little effort made to create a healthier and more supportive work environment.

The cumulative effect of the unhealthy atmosphere at Granny took a toll on multiple people's mental health, myself included. It is disheartening to reflect on the impact this workplace had on my well-being and that of my colleagues.

In sharing this review, my intention is to provide an honest account of my experiences at Granny. It is my hope that prospective employees will consider these aspects when evaluating whether this is the right workplace for them.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

If you don't want to be spoken badly about, don't treat people badly.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The atmosphere is dreadful, with gossip and bullying being the driving force for work-relationships.

Image

My experience at Granny has brought to light a stark contrast between the company's public image of inclusivity and the reality within the workplace. Despite the outward portrayal of being an inclusive and "no assholes" environment, my time here has revealed a different, and unfortunately, less positive reality.

While Granny positions itself as an inclusive workplace, the actual atmosphere within the company suggests otherwise. It has become clear that the touted values of inclusivity and a "no assholes" policy are not consistently upheld. The workplace culture does not always align with the advertised image, leaving employees to contend with an environment that falls short of the expectations set by the company's public face.

The discrepancy between the company's image and the day-to-day experiences of employees is not only disheartening but also impacts the overall work atmosphere. This misalignment can create a sense of disillusionment among employees who initially joined Granny with the expectation of a genuinely inclusive and respectful workplace.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

There seems to be a notable disparity in the promotion process, with a noticeable trend that those who are closely affiliated with specific individuals within the company are more likely to advance. Unfortunately, this dynamic creates an environment where professional growth and financial recognition are seemingly contingent on personal connections rather than merit or performance.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The prevalent issues of bullying, manipulation, and a lack of respect for colleagues spilled over into the team dynamics, making it difficult to foster a sense of unity. The hierarchical attitudes displayed by some long-term employees created an atmosphere where collaboration felt strained, and newer team members were often excluded from meaningful interactions.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Co-workers who have been at this company for a while have a certain arrogance and think they can belittle those around them.

Gleichberechtigung

As a woman, I have had a horrible time here.

Interessante Aufgaben

My experience at Granny has led me to observe a concerning pattern in the company's client relations and creativity. Unfortunately, it appears that Granny struggles with retaining interesting clients and tends to recycle ideas, which impacts the overall quality of the work.
