Pluspunten

Diverse mix of people, in general people are nice and socialable. Great flexibility and freedom. Good prices for lunch at the canteen. Drinking occasions in the pub next door

Minpunten

Too many politics. Too top management heavy - not enough people to actually do the work. Politics causing many talented people to leave and nothing is done to keep talent. The internal process is too admin heavy and too many steps which causes delay with 'real' work. No flexibility with booking resources. There was an ambiguous reason for the bar to close, this prevented the social mingling of people in the agency - leading to a more cold working environment. HR process is awful, new review template does not care about your needs and objectives to grow. There's bullying and many complaints about one particular high level management but HR and other management has not done anything to stop this from happening. No pay rise in 2 years, not even to match inflation and loss of spending power - no appreciation of work. TOO many 'art directors' who 'don't do design' and think they're creative directors. The agency needs more designers who can do and understand design!!

Pluspunten

Loved the great people I worked with at VMLY&R Commerce. Some of the brightest in the industry. I was given so much opportunity to lead. I had great clients and will always be grateful for my 2 years here.

Minpunten

I worked here during the pandemic so I didn’t get a lot of opportunity to get any kind of training or continued learning opportunities.

Pluspunten

WPP (parent co.) does a good job at sharing information and policies. Good benefits and percentage paid is fair. Nice office and location. Good I.T. team.

Minpunten

Client team leads left saying they are tired of putting out fires in their group. Others said you have to whew everything first before you feed it to their peers. One or two creatives do most of the work. The smart and dedicated client SVP's were either pushed out or VML Commerce lost the client due to C Suite interfering in what they knew nothing about.
