WeddingWire reviews

-They have great benefits that bring in low-paying employees who work extremely hard who at first love the benefits, only to realize they cant actually move up. It's a never ending cycle of low-paying employees leaving and the lazy upper-management staying there. -Takes FOREVER to get a promotion especially in the marketing department, can take up to 8 months or more from your initial ask -Will give you vague and unclear goals you must meet to get promoted, and may not promote you even if you do meet them -Upper management moves around in their roles and responsibilities so much it's hard to know who does what and what they actually DO. -They make promises about the company and your role they can't keep -Form cliques and give promotions to their favorite employees unfairly. A "favorite" might not have to work as hard to get promoted as someone who isn't favored by upper management -Decisions are constantly questioned, I constantly felt like my ideas weren't valued or cared about. They would act like they liked my ideas but then make an excuse for why they didn't execute them -Keep incapable people around because of close relationships to exec not because they actually know what they're doing - if you want to work in marketing, beware because the only thing they will want to know is how you make money for sales - not branding -everything the company does is to make money, they don't care as much about branding / social / content / marketing and it's very obvious early on -lots of money spent on unnecessary things instead of salary for employees -not a great place to grow your career -managers don't have employees best interests at heart, only want to please sales -overall if you want to get ahead you won't be able to unless you play into their political game and become best friends with management

If you came to WeddingWire looking to work for an innovated tech company, turn yourself around , this is not the place for you. They still sell the equivalent of impression based advertising. Seriously, not a single reputable online company has used that for local advertising since the early 2000s. It honestly is a garbage product to sell. There is absolutely nothing unique or special about this company. It is truly just a wannabe version of The Knot. In my few months here, I asked almost every manager what made this company unique, what made this product work... and I got crickets. It is basically like working with a bunch of washed up ex-sorority girls. None of the managers are qualified to be sales managers. During my 2 weeks of training, the CEO came in and said if we felt we were tricked or lied to during the interview process that we could quit now and be paid out 2 weeks. I went to bed that night debating bothering to come back in the next day. I've worked in sales at 2 of the most downloaded apps in the US, and let me tell you, this company is a joke. I stayed for a few months, and left for a company that sells a product worth selling. I took my time at WeddingWire off my resume and off linkedin, it was truly a giant waste of time and I am honestly embarrassed that I left such an amazing company to work here. 50% of the people who were hiring for the same job at the same time as me left within 5 months. That right there should tell you something.
