Pluspunten

- Some very talented individuals that truly care about others and the work they're doing - A lot of flexibility working remotely

Minpunten

In the past 2 years, Shift has gone through a lot of rebranding, repositioning, and general confusion about what they specialize in leading to dissatisfaction across the board, especially client retention. There are no goals or incentives for employees to focus on and everyone is in fear of the next layoff. The CEO has continued to lose money for the company every quarter since she began and her only solution to saving money is continued layoffs. When you can't point to one positive accomplishment, it's time to step down. Talented team members are under utilized while leadership continues to stumble through their roles and "figure it out as they go". With 4 rounds of layoffs in under 2 years, I'm thankful I was able to get off the Titanic while there were still lifeboats available. If it's not already clear, steer clear of this company and SHIFT your job search elsewhere.

Pluspunten

Lots of room to create your own structure and process. Respectful that employees are people. The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service. Tons of opportunity for learning. Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.

Minpunten

It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

Pluspunten

You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.

Minpunten

The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines. It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations. They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously. We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues. Again, thank you for the feedback.
