We appreciate you sharing this feedback to help us continue to improve the employee experience. It’s great to hear you’ve enjoyed the projects and perks. Working on brands that truly make a difference is something we’re proud of. Our mission —"to help the world choose better health”—matters, and we aim to make the work feel as rewarding as it is impactful. We also want to address the concerns you raised. We regularly benchmark compensation to stay competitive and have made adjustments to better reflect tenure and performance. Regarding workload, while there are periods of increased intensity—particularly during new business or account onboarding—those are not the norm at AbelsonTaylor Group. Like at any agency, there can be short-term “crunch times,” but our focus is on maintaining balance. Over the past year, we’ve taken steps to better align staffing with client needs, and we are currently right-sized so teams are working appropriate and manageable hours. We listen to feedback around flexibility and support and continue to evolve in those areas. We appreciate your contributions and remain committed to fostering a culture where people can do meaningful work and maintain a strong quality of life.

Pros

Free snacks and hot/cold beverages

Cons

Lack of leadership. Lack of experience in lead roles (eg, CCO). Lack of process. Lack of transparency. Lack of concern for employee welfare. Just watch. HR Director will post generic response riddled with falsehoods and delusional self-promotion.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. While we can’t speak to every individual experience, we do want to address a few points raised here. Our creative leadership includes highly experienced industry veterans, including a Chief Creative Officer with a long track record at leading global agencies. We’ve also worked hard to build clear, efficient processes—supported by a strong project management team—to help our teams deliver their best work for clients. Transparency is also a priority for us. In addition to regular town halls, we hold open Q&A sessions and encourage employees to speak directly with leadership whenever they have questions or concerns. We know no organization gets everything right, but feedback like this is taken seriously and helps inform how we continue to improve the employee experience.

Doesn't value their employees

Pros

The people who work here are amazing, but the culture is not cultivated by the agency itself, though it claims to.

Cons

Senior Leadership doesn't actually care about the wellbeing of their employees, nor do most managers. They treat their employees like cogs in the machine.
