Seer Interactive reviews

I'll start from the top and make my way down: - The Founder is an egotistical maniac who genuinely thinks he is a good guy. I used to follow him on LinkedIn but got tired of him spouting disingenuous garbage about how he and his company are holier than thou. Don't let this fool you. Wil favors employees that applaud him (even when they know he is wrong), he devalues opposing opinions (even when data-backed), he creates a hostile work environment by reacting to every emotion he has in any given moment, and he is insanely unprofessional in communication. - The Directors, Associate Directors and Team Leads are made up of the 3% of complacent employees that seem to be okay with the hostile environment (Stockholm's Syndrome, possibly?). There isn't one Director, AD, or TL that wasn't born and bred within the walls of Seer. That's problematic in so many ways. It creates a cult-like environment where the only new ideas come from Wil and the fan girls below him push his agenda forward. - The AMs and Associates are a mixed bag at best. People are promoted waaaaay too fast and given accounts / responsibilities that they can't handle. Rather than training, mentoring, or setting people up for success as they fumble through new situations in their stretch roles, Seer lets people fail. AMs and Associates are overworked, exhausted, and working 55, 60, 65-hour weeks. Late-night emails, weekend work, holiday work, missed PTO, working on vacation is all very much a thing at Seer. The agency caters to a younger, more junior employee. Tenured professionals will not stick around for the lack of work-life balance, coupled with the offensively low pay. Last thing: I took a linear job change, decreased my workload, and increased my pay by 35%. If you are still working at Seer, trust me... you are getting WAY underpaid and WAY overworked

- Did not realize how underpaid we were until leaving the company. However, the perks being offered do somewhat offset the fact that the pay is low, but hard to use many of the perks during a pandemic. - Constant pressure to stand out. I think this helped me grow in a sense, but sometimes the pressure was too much. - Despite the company being around for quite some time, it still has a start up mentality. It is quite draining to be frank- consistently feeling pressured to create new processes was tough. all in all, there were bumps and curves throughout my few years at Seer. The highs were absolutely amazing but the lows were pretty hard. If you have ever worked at an agency, you’ve probably felt similarly. No company is perfect, and despite the cons I listed above, I still have high praise for this company and would recommend working here to someone who is looking for a fast paced agency, open to working somewhere that regularly changes processes, and wants to work with some awesome, smart people.
