Pros

What makes working here special is the incredible people who surround you, lifting you up, cheering you on, and showing genuine care. It's not just about Effectv itself; it's the fantastic coworkers and supportive direct management that make the experience truly memorable. They create an environment that motivates, challenges, and rewards. These individuals are the heart of our success, turning every workday into something to look forward to. Plus, the added perk of great benefits just adds to the positivity of the whole experience.

Cons

Despite having supportive colleagues and managers, the Company itself lags behind in product development and experiences. While our competitors are surging ahead, we find ourselves struggling to keep pace. Instead of heeding the insights of frontline employees, decision-makers seem to favor leaders who lack firsthand selling experience. Over the years, I've observed numerous changes that primarily benefit those in executive positions rather than the individuals who contribute to building the company. This organization has consistently witnessed the departure of remarkable talents while retaining individuals who do not align with Effectv's mission and values. There seems to be a lack of appreciation for both clients and the dedicated efforts of Account Executives. We used to be a company that valued every client, regardless of their spending capacity or business size, offering exceptional experiences and gratitude. However, as our competitors elevate their game, we appear to be regressing. Sales thrive on relationships, and it appears that Effectv is drifting away from that fundamental aspect. I wouldn't be surprised if, in a few years, the company becomes purely transactional or faces the risk of elimination.

Pros

If you’re a narcissist, this is your place.

Cons

By far the worst employer I’ve ever experienced. This organization is a gaslighting, brainwashing sweat shop of lies, false abilities & deliverables, and micro psychological abuse day in, and day out. Training & onboarding is laughable. It’s time consuming at best. Old, rehashed, sales tactics, workbooks, quizzes, videos and someone with minimal experience making sure you completed and checked all the boxes. The company produced videos are where the gaslighting begins. It’s entertaining at an adolescent level. Their benefit packages are sub-par at best. Expect to pay around $500 per month in addition to co-pays and deductibles. If they valued people, benefits would be covered in full. Especially considering they pay poverty wages and can easily afford it. This company is so ultra cheap, they consider company perks like cable & internet, part of your pay. If only I could pay my electric bill, I could watch that show on cable/internet. Exaggerated for effect. If you climb the ladder, it’s mostly due to attrition. Turnover is consistent. Once the soul is wholly possessed, narcissism (insecurity) drives their fear-based structure of zombie minions who do nothing more than follow what the manipulated data tells them to do. Steer false outcomes and lies. AKA: you gas light employees and your clients. There's an entire structure to manipulate perceptions of campaign data to paint a picture of positive outcomes that just are not the truth. This in essence is the foundation of the entire operation & organization. If you do not fall in line like a good little minion, you will be targeted and harassed for termination. The goal is to make your life so sick and disfunction, you will quit. I’ve known for many years this is a twisted, corrupt company. When I was hired, I thought, I’ll drink the cool aid and see where it goes. They are so good; it actually took hold. During covid, seeing all the public relations propaganda they launched, posing as a concerned community supporter, and watching all the corporate bobbing head, minions on video staff meetings, I was shocked back to reality. The charity donations etc. are paid for by all the under paid employees. Nothings free. Honestly, there’s not even much to learn when you consider it’s based on manipulation and false perceptions. What good is living a life of lies? You get what we have in our society today. A manipulation of false realities to benefit the rich. After 2 years of covid, I was successful in sustaining and bringing back old and new business. I qualified for an annual bonus. I was fired to avoid paying out that bonus. Systemic targeting for speaking logic to ineffective narcissist management. HR helped guide the targeting. Run! But be aware. Our lives would be better without this big brother mental masturbation cult.

Pros

- Nice office. - Nice coworkers. Everyone's friendly. - I'm lucky to have a good boss. Very grateful for him

Cons

- Low pay - No culture. No office vibes. Just your typical boring corporate office. Everyone shows up to do their work, collect a paycheck, then leave. - Very unpredictable work load. I can't count how many weekends I have to spend to get things done by Monday because "we just really need this by Monday". - Constant threat of getting fired/laid off. Motivation based on fear, not love, not passion. - My boss' boss is terrible. All the work I do is not to advance the company or for any greater good, but most of it is to please the shifting wishes & whims of one person. - Ancient corporate structure - Constant internal politics - Forget about promotion. That won't ever happen.
