Avoid - Anonymous employee Vanity Group Employee Review

Cool brands, loads of freebies, snacks, office lunches, and the industry is exciting to work in. Some colleagues are genuinely lovely, but unfortunately, that’s overshadowed by the overall culture.

The work environment is toxic and riddled with extreme favoritism. A small group of people is treated with clear preferential treatment, creating an atmosphere of unfairness and division. Environment is very immature and not at all professional. Immense pressure from senior leaders and scare tactics are the norm, leading to poor morale where staff frequently vent frustrations to one another. High turnover is a glaring issue—many employees leave, not because they’re bad at their jobs as management would like to suggest, but because of the unbearable environment. The narrative is often spun to shift blame onto those who leave, rather than addressing problems.

Free snacks and drinks in the office. Mostly friendly and supportive colleagues.

Workload very high. Culture cliquey with gossip and interpersonal drama affecting the environment. A blame culture at times with responsibility being shifted between teams rather than collaboratively resolved. Many processes lacked structure and were created or revised as situations arose.
