Outstanding Place to Work

Pros

I have worked for a number of development firms, including DAI. By far, Creative is an outstanding place to work. Terrific management team, highly collaborative, mission driven and a wonderful place for women to gain professional experience. After all, the company was founded by four women in a garage nearly 40 years ago. One of the four continues to serve as CEO ans she is terrific!

Cons

There is never enough time in the day to get all the work done. Having said that, there is always a team around you supporting you

Steer clear

Pros

Good, smart colleagues with good intentions. Unfortunately, what brings people together is the con side of this organization.

Cons

A brown-noser breeding environment as people are discouraged to speak up and bring even the most mundane issues to live. Those who do speak up are shunned and generally excluded from any meaningful discussions. This top-down, conservative organization is poorly managed and personality driven. Recently, the management mistakes have led to the company's losing much of its business and it is completely logical given that the management tends to find fault for its missteps with others. Needless to say, this breeds the culture of paranoia, mistrust and back-stabbing.

You shouldn't work there

Pros

There's some great people at Creative, who I love dearly. But that's just about all I can say that's positive.

Cons

It's a very bad management culture. Neglect and really just disrespect for the great young people they've attracted to work for the company. They come and go, with very little real chance for advancement or a career at Creative, and no one bats an eye. Nasty place. Total kiss up, kick down environment. And as the losses have piled up, it's getting worse and worse all the time.
