Complex reviews

Work Culture is toxic, management doesn't work to promote growth.

Incredibly toxic and unstable place to work at, Many of the people here are trapped in high school, in terms of professionalism/maturity. Managers have major issues - I constantly felt held back in my role - and talk behind their direct reports' backs (I have evidence that mine certainly did) and rude employees get rewarded rather than reprimanded for their behavior. And if you wanted to raise anything inappropriate to HR? Good luck, as they are less than useless. No baseline level of respect, and I know some talented people who left the company because of that. While team dynamics became a bit more civilized under Buzzfeed (despite other obvious stability/financial issues), the Complex "o.g.'s" are now back to running the show. For many of them, Complex is their only professional experience, so they have gotten away with cliqueishness and exhibit contempt towards both new employees, and new ideas. For that last reason among others, this company will probably not be around much longer, while continuing to shoot itself in the foot and inhibit real growth. So please do yourself a favor, look elsewhere.
