Pros

Everyone on my team is great: smart, fun to work with, professional and supportive managers. I've learned a ton in my role and have been given a lot of opportunity to grow. I really have loved working here up until recently.

Cons

The situation at the company has gone downhill since the takeover of Clarke Capital Partners. They have poor communication, no transparency, and make a lot of grandiose statements and promises they don't keep. The CEO is behind the times and out of touch with employees' needs. The past year has been very chaotic with a mass exodus of employees, layoffs, and now an extreme and poorly-executed shift in policy surrounding work-from-home and remote hiring. Leadership failed to anticipate the effect that a nationwide recession would have on its business, and instead of taking responsibility for its poor planning and bad investments (i.e., a giant new office building that nobody asked for), it's trying to blame employees and punish us by taking away benefits and perks.

Cons

Clearlink went from a CEO that didn’t give a single care about the employees to new leadership that seems to care now but with that, I feel like the new people aren’t aware of what’s really going on. When you’re hired here, boy, do they sell you the dream! Everything is good, and slowly you start to lose hope & very quickly you learn this company is going downhill one way or another. I was part of the social team for years. We were promised growth and new opportunities and that NEVER happened. We’d bring up concerns about leadership in our individual team and the concerns were NEVER taken seriously, because as I easily learned, this company is like high school, they will protect their friends even if it means losing a brand partner. The higher ups will have random meeting to talk about the department & there’s specific higher ups who feel the need to show off their Disney trips/cruises while some of us are struggling to even keep up with bills and living paycheck to paycheck. Overall, there’s A LOT of broken promises on growth. Pay sucks and it’s hard to get a pay raise. Any concern you bring to a higher up will leave you ignored or they won’t do anything about it. Your career won’t grow here unless you’re BFFs with higher ups that have been there forever.
