Pros

The culture and people are awesome. The perks are great, and the benefits are decent.

Cons

Limited mobility depending on your department. Salaries are low, below industry standard in most cases. So are pay increases so to advance financially or in career you will likely have to move on after a year or so. Some of the executive staff have an attitude that their needs and wants are more important, so the little people often get overlooked.

Mediaocean Response
8y
Greetings and thank you for your response. We highly value feedback from our employees, as our leadership team is committed to making Mediaocean an exceptional place to work. This year, in demonstration of that commitment, I and other leaders will be responding to select Glassdoor reviews. This change allows us to further engage with former and current employees on issues that people feel strongly about. Your voice is important, and we are happy to respond to the variety of anonymous employee feedback sources (employee engagement surveys, feedback bins in the kitchen, etc.), which now includes the Glassdoor platform. I certainly agree that our culture and people here are awesome, the perks are great, and our benefits get better and better every year. As such, I am surprised and sorry to hear that you feel some executives have portrayed an attitude of superiority. We deeply cherish our open and collaborative environment, where everyone (including our CEO) sits in an open space. I have to admit, that took a little getting used to for me when I joined the firm, but now I see the value! I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you confidentially to hear about your experiences. If there are examples of this happening, I can assure you this unwelcomed behavior will be corrected immediately. You can e-mail me any time at BWolf@mediaocean.com, or stop by my desk in Chicago or New York (where I visit about once a month.)
