Poor Workplace Culture and Low Employee Morale

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Being part of the ad tech scene and working with awesome clients

Cons

-The culture is really poor (mostly non-existent) and most employees are unhappy. -Extremely high turnover rate. Morale is awful, everyone will jump ship if presented with a better opportunity.. -The company hasn't innovated in a long time and they are getting left behind by the competition.

Pros

It was a good place to initially learn stuff and meet people, Excellent timings and flexible work environment.

Cons

> Need to stop saving our heads and start to take risks and innovate in various product areas > Concentrate more on generating value in return to the revenue. Generally publishers go behind the VALUE you bring to their assets. > Try to inject a positive vibe within the team as its loosing many members because of unsafe environment.
