Pros

A few good eggs -- but that's it.

Cons

Extremely toxic culture driven by unqualified leadership in key senior roles. Many leaders appeared more focused on protecting themselves than supporting teams, which created a defensive, blame-heavy environment. Strong performers were often undermined rather than empowered and treated as threats rather than assets. I saw good people burn out or become part of the problem just to keep their jobs. The workload was relentless, unsupported, and unsustainable, very much a burn-and-churn environment. If you have other options, seriously consider them.

Pros

I love working at Scale Media. The remote setup gives me the freedom to manage my own time and still have a life outside of work — which is rare these days. Leadership genuinely cares about you as a person, not just an employee. I feel trusted, supported, and appreciated here. It’s the kind of place that reminds you good companies do exist.

Cons

Because the team is fully remote, you sometimes miss out on the little in-person moments — but the culture makes it easy to stay connected.

Pros

- I met really talented people that I still connect with today - improved my skill set

Cons

the negative reviews on here are true. not an exaggeration. at all. after the first wave of layoffs, the company was never the same. Dont get me wrong, im aware that a company isnt a "family," but higher ups are ruthless and love a good blame game. I had 5-6+ managers. Why? They couldnt figure out what kind of person they needed and constantly threatened to fire them and/or their team members. I was a victim of a layoff. I don't have ill will towards anyone. I don't feel angry towards them, but they need to figure things out. I waited a long time to write this in an effort to be as impartial as i could be. - no room for growth. want a promotion? nope. they'll hire out for that. - job security? ZERO. they did layoffs like clockwork. seems like its still the case :/ - morale is at an all time low.
