Beware of positive reviews

Pros

Good onboarding that introduces new people to the workings of the agency.

Cons

This a note to beware of positive reviews from new employees. As part of onboarding, they are required to post to Glassdoor. This leads to biased reviews from new employees who have not had the chance to have the full experience of working there.

Pros

Soda machine is a decent perk.

Cons

They are inept and immoral. Their Glorious Leader is a raging narcissist. The whole place made me wana vomit. Clients have been waking up to this nonsense. There won’t be many left soon.

Horrendous Organization

Pros

The experience you earn at Zimmerman is unmatched. You will create some great relationships (because you spend almost 10+ hours a day with these people), but never let your guard down.

Cons

I would first like to add that almost all positive reviews you see are from new employees that were encouraged by HR to lift the overall company rating. The list of cons is seemingly endless, but I'll provide my top six. - You have no personal life working here. The standard 9-5, or 9-6 at Zimmerman, is nonexistent. You will work 50-60 hours every week, at a minimum, no matter what. - Vacation and personal time are practically useless. Even if you can take the days, expect to work! - Pay is laughable. Zimmerman will run you into the ground, all while offering you the minimal amount of compensation legally possible. And don't get your hopes up about a raise, promotion, or even a holiday bonus. If you're an entry to junior-level employee, the chances of getting these are slim to none. - Your mental and emotional well-being will suffer. You will also find yourself struggling to maintain any morality you once had. If I had a dollar for the times I stumbled across someone crying, I would have doubled my salary. - Leadership is not there to lead you. They're there to break you down and mold you into a machine. Don't get me wrong, some incredible people are working at this agency, but unfortunately, the bad far outweighs the good. You will take the fall for shortcomings, you will be humiliated in front of colleagues, and you will be berated daily. - SHADY business. The New Business team does a great job at pitching the agency with rose-colored lenses on ... unfortunately, clients soon realize that what they were sold and what they are getting are two VERY different things. Don't worry, though - Account Services will always have to take the complaints and bend backward to fix whatever misleading image clients expect.
