Pros

Nexxen has decent solutions and technology. Very innovative and forward thinking company but the problem is that their platform is all cobbled together from multiple companies they've acquired over the years so the platform and tech are extremely complicated to navigate and there are constant bugs/issues within the platform.

Cons

A primary issue is the lack of transparency and communication between departments. Operations are highly segmented, making it difficult to keep track of which teams or departments are responsible for specific tasks, as these responsibilities frequently shift every few months. Additionally, leadership’s expectations appear to be misaligned with industry standards. Sales teams, for example, have experienced year-over-year quota increases that are unrealistic. I worked with sellers who's quotas increased 300%+ YoY with no justification or explanation why. This has led to very few sellers hitting quota. Despite mid- and upper-level management acknowledging these inflated targets, they attribute the quotas to directives from higher executives or the board, implying there is little they can do to address the situation. Another area of concern is the insufficient training and support provided to the service and support teams, resulting in subpar customer service. This issue is compounded by a lack of transparency in client reporting. Managed Service clients do not have access to a dashboard to track their campaign performance, which raises concerns that Nexxen is 'grading their own homework' when sharing campaign performance with clients. In summary, while the company is heavily focused on innovation and developing unique solutions, it seems to be neglecting critical issues within its core platform. Over the past six months, many of the top performers in sales, management, and customer support have left to pursue opportunities with competitors.

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.
