Not as good as I hoped - Shooter/Editor LINUS MEDIA GROUP Employee Review

a lot of talented people employee bonding activities

No proper/or explained HR system. Sexist remarks, coded language, and harassment were common place. Inappropriate actions, comments, and discussions frequently occurred. Including discussion about employees bodies, appearance, clothes, and wealth. Upper/middle management frequently misuse power. No way to report most incidents without issue, since the HR team was ALSO upper management. Feedback was consistently harsh and not constructive. Inappropriate language was commonly used while giving feedback. Meetings with unbalanced power dynamics were common place. Gaslighting situations frequently occurred. Unbiased 3rd parties were never present, or easily able to be requested in these meetings. Lack of proper communication between management and employees. Outside ventures frequently frowned upon, or limited by the company.

Great role if you enjoy building/managing relationships with brands and being immersed in the world of gaming, content creation and PC hardware. You often get to know about products before they're released, however to be successful you do need to have a good sense of what the writing team is looking for in terms of 'content worthy' products. Overall it was awesome. Only reason I left was because I had to go back to my home country for family. Linus and Yvonne are genuinely good people. Good work life balance and they genuine care for their staff. don't listen to the haters. I felt valued as an employee, and management trusted me to work on tasks that I saw as important. I was not micromanaged. It was cool to see your idea or product that you pitched become full LTTs. One thing I love about LMG is that the culture is 'anyone can pitch an idea, as long as its a good idea',

Limited remote work options currently.
