Unstable. Messy. Low Morale. Lots of Layoffs. Toxic. - Anonymous employee Scale Media Employee Review

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.

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.

Remote flexibility, generous PTO and mental health days, small monthly WFH stipend

The company is constantly shifting direction without a clear plan, and executive leadership never really seems aligned. There have been repeated layoffs, no real sense of where the business is going, and a lot of energy poured into AI without it feeling tied to a viable strategy. Morale is dead. People are basically moving through the day like zombies, nodding along to half baked, ChatGPT written strategies because everyone is afraid of ending up in the next round of layoffs. Growth is beyond limited, it’s virtually nonexistent. Roles can and probably will change significantly from what you were hired to do, and it’s very easy to end up owning outcomes without having the authority, context, or support to actually drive them.
