Pros

The company has really found its vision and voice with Source. It feels more aligned and I really believe we are trying to change the industry. There have been some organizational changes but I personally feel it is for good reasons and change for the better. Our new President is fantastic; He is open on where we can improve and is providing a much more transparent leadership. He’s not afraid to answer the tough questions. You get to work with incredibly bright people who are very passionate about their work There is a good work-life balance - flexibility on working and great benefits and perks. Lots of opportunities to develop your skills through training and the ability to move internally to another role.

Cons

Diversity at a senior level

Pros

Mostly good, intelligent people Perks & benefits

Cons

Poor leadership has led the company into subpar performance, and there is difficulty in retaining employees. Constant organizational changes that seem to be made without any rationale or input from broader teams. There is generally a lower morale, which poor leadership is unable and unwilling to fix

Thank you for your candor and feedback. We certainly appreciate hearing from longstanding employees and will do our best to address your concerns both here and in your day-to-day experience at MediaMath. Over the past year, we’ve welcomed pivotal leadership to our team, chief among them, our new president. We’re also currently hiring several key roles on our leadership team, including a Chief Client Officer and a Head of HR, to best equip all of us for success in 2020 and beyond. We will continue our work on being even more transparent and responsive and hope that you’re starting to feel the benefits of some of the recent shifts we’ve made to the organization, which were largely based on feedback from employees, clients, and leadership. We would like to continue the conversation with you. If you have any other feedback or comments you would like to share so that we can continue to improve MediaMath for all of us, please reach out to hr@mediamath.com.

Once Great, Now Volatile

Pros

Culture is strong at MediaMath and teams and the people who comprise those teams are dedicated and loyal. Perks are amazing - unlimited PTO (in the States), free snacks, beautiful offices...on the surface a dream place to work.

Cons

Upper management has lost touch with what made this company great in the first place. Ego and ambition lead the company to make many poor decisions which have lead to low revenue generation, difficulty hiring and maintaining top notch talent, and organizational changes that break high functioning teams apart. Turnover is high, loyalty is low, and the company is moving to a more corporate environment and ideology. This type of growth is fine and expected for a company that is 10+ years old but the humanity and respect for the people who have literally and figuratively built the company has waned in the last few years. It's about making money and less about creating a steady work environment for people who are dedicated to the product and the vision. The top-down decisions have seemingly been made without consideration for those who do the actual day to day work which was a core part of what made working at MediaMath so great in its early days.

Thank you for yourfeedback. We appreciate you taking the time to tell us about your experience with us as we use it as an opportunity to improve. On one hand, we’re happy you enjoyed our culture during your time here and had the chance to work with a team of dedicated employees. We think our team is pretty awesome too! At the same time, we’d like to respond to your concerns: In 2019, we welcomed pivotal new leaders to MediaMath, including our president and most recently our Chief Financial Officer. We’ve been very focused on increasing our transparency with employees through weekly All hands and emails to ensure that employees feel engaged, informed, and most fundamentally, valued and respected. We’ve also prioritized around fewer initiatives, enabling employees to have a greater understanding of our vision and goals, how we’re performing against those goals, and creating a work environment that feels steady, even amidst an industry that’s undergoing major transformation, that we’re playing an important role in driving. Thank you again for taking the time to provide your feedback and we wish you well in all of your future endeavors.
