Pros

The new management in Dallas has replaced the long time managers that were here for years. Since then, things are much better. We're getting a lot of new work and actually getting it all done right. When I talk to our customers, I get to deal with happy people who want us to do more for them instead of angry ones who don't want to talk to me - a total turnaround from before. We now have a really good collaboration environment where people can work together and get things done as a team, a much better approach, and we're hiring the right people that are real team members instead of "lone wolves". The projects are outstanding and the culture is really getting good.

Cons

The company is changing a lot. The Dallas office was disorganized and confused for years until the current management was hired. Now, it's a lot more focused and we get more done, and make a lot fewer mistakes. It will take a while for the old employees to either change with the rest of us, or just go somewhere else. I'd love to work from home, but until we get the teams changed over, I understand why we need to stay in the office together as much as we can.

Thanks. Are you reviewing Soap Creative in Australia or the former Soap offices in the USA?

Pros

The best part about Soap Creative in Dallas was working with very smart and talented people.

Cons

The cons largely center around management/leadership. Management acts a lot like they're in high school and if you do not follow their idea of what Soap is (bro-culture) then you have no place there. They have self-inflated egos and often act petty. Their negative actions are transparent, yet they think that they are smarter than everyone else. It is insulting.

Sorry to hear this. As the original founder of Soap in Australia hearing stuff like this makes me sad. Please note this review is for a company now called Ludomade, which still operates in the USA with the same CEO and much the same team. Soap no longer has an office in the USA and the USA office was separate to the Australian operation. You can find Ludomade's Glass Door account on the site which amazingly has all positive reviews. I'd appreciate if the review could be removed and reposted to Ludomade to properly reflect who you are reviewing as it's out of my control to do anything about it and the Soap name should have nothing to do with such a review. cheers Ash (Soap Founder in Sydney)
