Cult-like and toxic from the top down - Anonymous employee Spectrum Science Employee Review

Niceness has no place here. Most of the Company is a clique and team leaders frequently lie to team members to uphold the view that it's OK to run a Company like a cult. The requirements to be in the clique are to be mean, a bad manager, and work 60+ hours a week--if you don't play by these rules, expect to be booted. Poor transparency from nearly all team leaders (across social, media and account) and inability to articulate constructive feedback leaves junior team members confused and unsure of their performance. Leaders who had been reported to HR for harassing staff and received senior-level promotions while junior staff received none as the Company still struggles to restructure after the layoffs and mergers. Underlying tones of racism and ablism run rampant. Company is mostly white women who have no interest in developing their staff and see people management as a chore. The CEO is a shadow puppet operated by toxic and incompetent EVPs. Do not come here if you value yourself.
