Pros

Some great people and unlimited PTO.

Cons

Over the last few months, HR initiated a campaign offering $150 for positive Glassdoor reviews. Once they had all of the reviews in, they made the following announcement: employees within a 2-hour commute of an office or coworking space will return to work four days a week. Adding insult to injury, they indicated they anticipate turnover as a result, which they openly welcome due to the current job market conditions providing ample candidate pools, currently without jobs, willing to come into an office. Furthermore, there is a mounting concern both within the organization and among external stakeholders that Nexxen may be providing misleading information to clients and staff regarding several developments since the mergers and rebranding.

Dear Valued Employee, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and concerns. We take feedback seriously and want to ensure we're creating a workplace that supports and values our employees. First, regarding the recent Glassdoor initiative, we believe in transparency and encourage all our employees to share their experiences. We understand that our initiative to gather feedback may have come across differently than intended, and we were simply wanting to promote the brand. Your POV is certainly appreciated and heard. Our goal is always to create a space where everyone feels heard, and we will reflect on how we can better approach such initiatives in the future. Regarding the decision to return to the office, we recognize that this is a significant change, especially after an extended period of remote work. Our intention was to bring teams closer together and foster collaboration that can sometimes be difficult to achieve remotely. We understand that this transition may not be easy for everyone and are committed to supporting our employees during this period of adjustment. We also want to address your concern about turnover. While we acknowledge the potential challenges that come with any major shift in work arrangements, we want to emphasize that our primary focus is on retaining and nurturing our current talent. We value our employees highly and are exploring ways to make this transition as smooth as possible. There is an increasing trend in N. America overall to return to office, and we are navigating these changes with care. Again, we appreciate your feedback. It is invaluable in helping us understand the areas where we need to address. If you have any additional thoughts or suggestions, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss them further. Our People Team is here for you. Thank you!

Pros

Snacks and seltzer If you enjoy observing organizational dysfunction up close, you’ll gain plenty of experience

Cons

This company often feels more like a marketing operation than a technology company. The core product has significant issues and clients continue to leave, yet leadership prioritizes expensive client events instead of investing in fixing the platform. Layoffs repeatedly target operational staff while executive leadership appears untouched. At the same time, executives maintain private offices while employees are required to come in three days a week to compete for limited desks. Many people end up taking calls from open desks because there are not enough conference rooms. Large portions of work continue to be outsourced while teams in other regions are reduced through layoffs. The culture also discourages raising concerns. After I spoke up about being treated poorly by my manager, I was included in a later round of layoffs. Whether intentional or not, it sends a clear message about how feedback is handled. Between the product instability, constant restructuring, and leadership priorities, it is difficult to see a long-term path for the company or its employees. Employee turnover and client churn both seemed to be increasing during my time there. There appears to be a significant disconnect between executive leadership and the day-to-day realities of the teams running the business.
