Zimmerman Advertising reviews

- An 18 year old influencer could come up with better creative than the creative leadership team driving the strategy/vision at this place. - They have 0 clue how to do social media. - Lots of very under qualified people in high level roles. Age does not equal industry relevance. - They push TV as a key advertising money maker even though it's a dying category because they can charge a lot. - They over promise to clients and waaaay under deliver, which falls back on account services and requires constant back pedaling. - There is a HUGE disconnect between the P&L aligned with the client signed SOW, which leads to overloading each department with way too much work per client, no time to think/strategize, hence "The Machine" tagline which = quantity over quality. - For an agency that has been around for so long, you would think their client onboarding would be refined and in an SOP model. NOPE! There's no process and each account team does it differently leaving chaos to kick off the clients discovery, strategy, planning and initial deployment. - Boys Club filled with boomers who are entitled and have zero clue of the latest trends in marketing/advertising. I think a few got fired during the pandemic due to racial slurs and misogynist comments. You can google the article that was written about this in 2021. - Entry level people make no money and I felt bad watching very dedicated and capable people who were there for 6-10 years final get promoted. That's way too long of a time span to promote people.
