SCOUT reviews

You sit at one of two tables: the cool kid table where you are invited to take part in the reindeer games or the leftover table where you spend endless hours servicing existing clients. Once you are relegated to the leftover table there is only way to go: away. You will no longer be recognized by management. Maintaining the client should not be a bad thing. It's what pay the bills so you can do amazing creative. But at Scout you are looked down upon. It's really pretty sad. The process could definitely stand an overhaul. Scout seems perfectly happy selling round upon round of revisions instead of strong messaging and accuracy. The management makes promises to land talent and once they're onboard, those promises are conveniently forgotten or used as leverage to encourage an action. It just made me angry.

Mundane, repetitive work. Don't come here and expect to do the finest work of your career. Pay is well below agency average. There are no experienced leaders, so there's no one to learn from. Expect to work long hours regularly. Some leaders are quick to blame others for things they have no idea about. Watch your back.
