AssetMark reviews

Toxic work environment: The marketing department is plagued by internal politics, poor communication, and a lack of psychological safety. Unrealistic deadlines: Projects are often under-scoped and over-promised, leaving employees scrambling to meet last-minute demands. Poor leadership: There is little accountability from management, and feedback is not welcomed unless it aligns with leadership’s narrative. Favoritism: Opportunities for advancement or recognition often come down to personal connections rather than merit. Bait-and-switch roles: The job you are hired for is rarely the job you end up doing. Expect your responsibilities to shift without notice or support. Long hours, low respect: Work-life balance is more of a tagline than a reality. Burnout is common, and contributions often go unnoticed.

It’s been noticed that in many cases middle management isn’t effective. Many have noticed that not enough impact is being made in that area and we need more of a player/coach style rather than just a coach. Especially when our employee size is on the smaller end. Our compensation also feels below market average for our positions. I feel we should revisit this is we want to remain competitive in the industry and retain great employees.
