Pros
The team/culture: Everyone at Gripped calls this out as their favourite thing about working here. A genuinely supportive, intelligent and creative bunch who want to see one another and Gripped succeed. Super social office environment that makes it easy to show up to work every day. It’s incredibly rare to see folks working late in the office (experienced lots at other agencies) but if someone has a problem that needs to be solved for a customer the team comes together. The clients & variety of work: Gripped serves one of the more challenging B2B verticals which is fantastic for professional growth, learning and meaning the work is always interesting. As an agency, they are open to new ideas and approaches in all functions while having clear service lines that mean you can deliver value. The growth: Gripped is a growing business built on ambitious and enthusiastic people who are also growing themselves. Management prioritise personal objective setting, training and support that helps their staff to achieve their career goals. Investment in process & documentation: The best onboarding process I’ve experienced in my career so far. Feedback I’ve had from hires coming from other agencies is that Gripped’s process management and documentation is a cut above. Meaning we can all crack on and do more of what we enjoy. Salary & benefits: Compared to others its size, through my own journey and through insight gathered hiring into the Gripped team the benefits package is competitive.
Cons
Not for those looking for fully remote. While Gripped does have remote employees, I would argue those that get the most value are those that are excited by the chance to collaborate in person a few times a week with team members.
