Burnout Culture Driven by Poor Leadership

Pros

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and are willing to take on extra responsibility, you’ll find ways to grow - often without formal structure or support.

Cons

Singer hires for senior and director-level roles without always ensuring the person is truly qualified. When teams speak up or raise concerns, they’re often ignored, which creates a work environment that can feel disjointed and discouraging. Leadership rarely steps in to address issues, and rather than fostering collaboration, it often leads to confusion, lack of clarity around roles, and misaligned goals. Promotions typically come with more responsibilities but no increase in salary. I managed the workload of multiple roles for over 18 months and was still told I hadn’t done enough to justify a raise - despite delivering on all expectations. The CEO places more value on your personal availability than on the actual impact of your work. If you miss a call or aren’t immediately reachable, you may be publicly criticized by them. After supporting him directly for months, there was no thank you. The focus at the top is entirely on rapid growth through acquisitions and hitting revenue milestones, with little regard for employee well-being or retention. Those who constantly say yes and put the CEO’s needs first are the ones who move up - not necessarily those who bring the most value to the company.

Pros

- There isn't any. It used to have a good culture but now everyone's miserable.

Cons

I gave it another year to see if some good would come of their inspirational company updates and town hall meetings that say how well we are doing... but nothing has changed. Still no changes in management. Still no operating system that connects the entire company. Their big idea of 2025 is to let go of almost the entire marketing department last month. Isn't that the first sign of a company in trouble? You start with marketing. Just like that, they are no longer with the company. So much knowledge and talent... gone. Again, like my last review, treated like a number. They decided to go with an outside "marketing agency" instead who doesn't know the business at all. And what they've come up with so far? Reposting OLD projects on social media from 8-10 years ago BEFORE Singer even took over the smaller companies that took the photos and completed the project. Singer had nothing to do with these projects they are posting about. They keep using photos from one of the marketing girls who hasn't worked here in 2 years. Well now they don't have anyone to do that because they let everyone go. If this doesn't say desperate, I don't know what does. We can't highlight any NEW projects? Nothing for 2025? I think most of us would be happy with 2024 projects. Even 2023. We don't share team and company events anymore. Nothing about the social club or our holiday parties. The managers are still terrible and they keep promoting people that don't deserve it. I am looking for a new job officially.

Thank you for leaving us a review. Your suggestions about updating external marketing and shining a light on the internal events that make Singer a special place to work are wonderful. We are currently working on highlighting personal and professional achievements throughout our offices. We are looking to launch and being more intentional with showcasing the wonderful work our volunteers do to plan picnics and parties.
