Well, it’s a job - Anonymous employee Adelphi Values Employee Review

Collaborative work environment, opportunities for growth

I have not yet experienced anything negative

Relatively open communication channels with directors. Lateral structure that allows for connecting with the whole team.

Management decisions from an Omnicom and Adelphi Group level have stripped the company of anything once found positive. The team was assured of no layoffs during a merge, and then the first group to successfully merge were laid off. Deferred compensation was not awarded and we were not told ahead of time. 5 days of PTO were taken back. Promotions and annual raises delayed by months, often with no back pay. The team is spread incredibly thin, having lost around a third of the staff over the last two years with no approval to hire. This leads to no time to drive internal initiatives towards personal development. The US team now uses researchers and managers from the UK office, which leads to resourcing and communication challenges. The company culture that made it worth staying through low pay by industry standards hasn’t been able to withstand this. The office lease hasn’t been renewed and the team is worn down across the board. I don’t know if I see AV PCO US standing in 3 years unless something drastic happens. The Adelphi Group seems to be struggling financially, but communication from group-level management is either non-existent, opaque, or seemingly false. Compensation across the board has tanked due to decisions from group and Omnicom: 401k match is almost nonexistent, 5 days of PTO have been rolled back, PTO maximum cap has been reduced, deferred compensation not awarded, annual raises (3% at the max) delayed or not given.
