Celebrity Branding Agency Reviews

Cons

Pace is very fast, so be prepared to hit the ground running.

Cons

I have never seen such an unorganized, unprofessional company. They hired sales people and expected them to successfully sell before they had their products and services fully solidified for sale. They do not have a training program for new hires, they only provide an incomplete spreadsheet and insist that is enough for you to start selling immediately. They continually changed prices, services and deliverables which made it impossible to learn the products so the sales team could sell them. The management and leadership seem to have been hired and kept on board because they are friends with the owner and none have the ability to make clear leadership decisions. If you ask a very simple question about a product or service you will often be sent to someone else or be given incorrect information. This will be corrected later on, often after you have relayed the incorrect information to a prospect. One member of the leadership team provided incorrect details about a product and also asked me not to message him after I politely asked him a simple question during my onboarding process, that was pretty unbelievable. In my opinion, the services they provide do not offer a lot of value to the client and when a client does come on board, the onboarding process will be unacceptably sloppy and embarrassing. I felt guilty about signing new clients on after I saw the onboarding process (which is all handled by ONE overworked person). They are also understaffed and have a very difficult time delivering on promises at an acceptable pace throughout the sign on to the onboarding process.

Cons

Not so great but was ok

Cons

Management does not communicate and changes their minds all the time (one person seems to do it just as a power trip). They never acknowledge their own mistakes, and instead often blame staff. Certain managers have been known to completely berate staff. At best, these specific individuals try to make you feel unqualified, lazy, and unintelligent. They care about quantity of clients over quality of services given to the clients, so re-think this if you care about providing high-quality work to your clients.The turnover rate is extremely high (approximately 10 people so far this year, with a current staff of only about 15, not including CEOs. There's also a handful of freelancers that I know about). Most of those people have quit. Work/life balance depends on who you are, and varies wildly. This agency is related to a whole web of other companies, including CelebritySites, Dicks + Nanton, DNHR LLC, etc.

Cons

There are growing pains. You will have to wear a lot of hats and sometimes communication from the top isn't always the best/clear. The benefits are not the best at all.

Cons

This company feeds you lies from the beginning. Don't fall for their "nice offices". Don't leave your current job to work here cause you'll regret it your first month. When it comes to salary don't expect to get a raise unless you beg, they criticize your work constantly and make you feel like you aren't worthy of it. They underpay you and overwork you. So, if you are working somewhere already and want to see what other "great" opportunities are out there don't work here unless you are looking for temp position. Major lack of diversity, it seems they are scared of it...

Cons

Managers don't have useful tools to train new employees, no "new employee" introduction, CEOs and managers care very little about their employees (the CEO never even knew my name), no diversity whatsoever and from what I understand, they hardly hire people of color, no 30 day review, horrible benefits that don't kick in until you've been employed with them for 3 months, pointless meetings in which the bigwigs talk among themselves at the big and important table and everyone has to pretend like they know what is going on, awful sick/PTO and this is not a very family-friendly company. Just about everyone who works here is young, unmarried and/or doesn't have children. You almost feel guilty for wanting to call in late because your son was sick, high retention rate. There is a reason why people don't last more than a year here. And there's a reason why most of the employees are in the their 20s - those who have been in the professional world for longer KNOW better, no hot food in the office because the bigwigs have allergies and don't like loud smells but seriously? You don't provide a suitable lunch room/office space for your employees all because the bigwigs (who hardly stop by the office anyway) don't like loud smells.

Cons

The health benefits are not that great.
