Pros
Great selection of soft drinks downstairs.
Cons
4media group collects people via the CEO and his combination of relentless charm, empty promises and straight up good salesmanship. Staff are then thrown into an old, sodden gin distillery masquerading as a fit for purpose workspace where the team are left rudderless with an utter lack of leadership, general management or strategic perspective, and try to piece everything together and make it work. It doesn't. 4media group are a transactional, sales-led agency supplier, providing clients lazy and meaningless broadcast PR campaigns. Commercially they hardly turn a profit; operationally they struggle to deliver the work, losing clients regularly and constantly needing to fill the leaky bucket; and culturally they resemble somewhere between a toxic call centre and a morgue (though with less vision, values and purpose) rather than the integrated comms agency melting pot of insight, strategy and creativity they'd have you believe. A complete absence of personal and professional development, minimal benefits beyond a free Monday morning breakfast and an occasionally full biscuit tin, sub standard laptops resembling something from the noughties, horrific internal comms, and no corporate strategy or planning culminating in knee jerk decision making. I could go on. I won't. Rotten To The core
