Buckle up - it’s a ride - Anonymous employee Crowd Content Media Employee Review

All feedback is appreciated and taken seriously, and while we don’t feel this review paints an accurate picture of our company, we do acknowledge some valuable points and potential room for improvement: 1. It’s true. We’re a fairly small company, and while we don’t have a traditional HR department, we do have a leadership team member who oversees HR functions, including onboarding, benefits, time off, pay issues, and personnel concerns. 2. We always look for the best candidates for each role. Sometimes that’s a new hire with no former affiliation with our company, and sometimes it’s done from within the company ranks or our talented pool of freelancers. 3. Some of our team members are related, but the majority are not. What’s important is that everyone at CC be 100% qualified to be in their role. Our team works hard day in and day out to provide our clients with the best service possible. We are always seeking great talent and if one of our employees’ friends, neighbors, partners, sons, sisters, uncles or cousins would be a valuable addition to our team, we’d be thrilled to have a conversation with them. We’d never discriminate against a strong candidate just because they’re related to a current employee (nor would we give someone preference over another candidate due to that relationship). 4. We promote a culture of open and honest feedback so that all team members can continually improve and grow. Based on your feedback, maybe we still have some work to do in that area. Since we received this rating, we’ve taken steps to ensure that everyone is comfortable providing upward feedback, and everyone is able to do so. 5. We understand that this job isn’t for everyone. It’s challenging, and it often comes with a lengthy learning curve. We are a high-performance organization striving to delight our clients, and we ask our team members to always perform at a 100%. Some roles take six months before a team member is fully trained and able to perform adequately. We’re in a deadline-driven industry, and if you find yourself up against a deadline but not ready to deliver, it can result in later nights or weekend hours. It’s never encouraged and we look for ways to avoid those situations, but it’s ultimately up to all employees to prioritize and manage their time and resources efficiently.
