Not an Agency

Pros

There are some great clients.

Cons

Everything. Losing clients left and right because the management sees the company as a product company and the people who work there as merely a replaceable cog. All of the executives that had client relationships were let go, and new executives replaced them. The new CEO Daina didn't even bring a new big client with her. Neither did the Client Partership executive. Shouldn't those two people bring in new business.

How does Daina Middleton (CEO) still have a job?

Pros

Ansira hires great talent and provides decent benefits to employees.

Cons

This ship has already sailed (and sunk). Ansira was a great, forward-thinking company with a clear vision. The previous CEO was very driven; there was consistent opportunities for new business, company growth, and proper recognition and compensation for hard-working employees. Enter player 2 (Daina Middleton). Since Daina has been CEO, Ansira has failed its clients and its employees. Company culture has plummeted, there have been very little opportunities for new business, employee compensation is abysmal, there have been mass layoffs and long-tenured employees leaving like a chain-reaction of dominoes -- yet NOTHING is being done about it. The only thing Daina has been successful at is losing the company's biggest clients. "Oh, we lost our biggest account? Oh well, maybe next week will be better. Nope, there goes another big account." I am truly amazed that the holding company has not put out this fire. Just baffles my mind.

Resilience is one of the attributes that has allowed Ansira to thrive for 100 years. Adapting to current industry needs and realigning strategy for the future is hard work that sometimes comes with uncomfortable changes. As many current and former employees have told us, we have seen many improvements over the past year. We have had some disappointments as well. As those who have been in this business for a while can attest, the ebb and flow of clients is standard for this industry. We never enjoy when a client changes their business strategy resulting in a loss for us and we are always seeking opportunities for improvement.
