C-4 Analytics reviews

I was hired as an Account Manager and initially excelled, even earning a performance award. However, poor organization in the company meant that I was tasked with clients/duties typically outside of my role. When I raised concerns about feeling undertrained and unsupported, a plan was made to transition me off those responsibilities, but it never happened after 8 months! Instead, I was assigned additional duties that I also struggled with due to the lack of training and support. My requests for assistance were frequently ignored by leadership. There were instances of lack of communication from management about what others were already handling. Despite explaining that my performance issues stemmed from the company's own lack of training and support after changing my job duties, I was placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP). The PIP criteria made it extremely difficult to demonstrate ownership and initiative when my pleas for help were ignored and I was left out of key communications. It felt like there was an active effort to manage me out by sabotaging my ability to succeed. Overall, I tried my best but the lack of leadership support made it an untenable situation. The company needs to improve training, communication and accountability for managers.

This place has gone down hill. Seriously look elsewhere unless you’re desperate for income and got an offer. Don’t expect to be fairy paid though. If you LOVE making countless analytical decks, want to spend every single day on several client calls & weekly company wide mandatory meetings that are a waste of time, enjoy the koolaid… all for subpar income, this may be the place for you. There’s a 20k pay difference between Account Managers and Account Coordinators but they do the same exact thing. Maybe a couple less accounts, but don’t be bamboozled by the embarrassing Client Services structure. To all the reviews alluding to people not being able to handle agency life, don’t buy that. The work load here is NOT normal. Do not be gaslighted into thinking it is. If the training and hiring program was as great as they self proclaim, they wouldn’t be running into the issue of people “not being able to handle their work.” I’ve seen some people do well here (when they kiss up and “bleed orange”) It’s an overall toxic environment and the only way you will be promoted is by absolutely forcing it and doing WAY beyond your scope of work, which you’re already underpaid for. The turn over here is so high (aside from the horrible client retention as of late - the most cancellations they’ve ever seen) and they need to stop blaming the people and take a serious look at themselves. And no - not the HR annual review employee based bias survey. Extreme down size in office over the last year, that’s never a good sign. Wouldn’t be surprised if they go under soon. Hopefully the people here wake up and realize what a circus show this place really is.
