Pros

HA! The only one pro they have is their nice office.

Cons

If I could write a novel on how horrible this place actually is, there would be SEVERAL EDITIONS. They will put on a show for you, but it is all smoke and mirrors. I would give this place 0 stars if that was an option. If you want to have no life, get paid extremely low, not have any growth within the company, work long work hours, and be thrown under the bus at every waking moment, then this place is meant for you. Management is too busy being money-hungry to care about their employees' well-being. It is incredibly sad. They are too busy pushing for more business to pay off their rent. Even during the pandemic, not all of the employees got to work from home for the longest time. Pretty much everyone had to be in the office until everyone complained enough and voiced their concerns. Don't listen to any of the positive reviews, they are written by their copywriters because they were told to do so just to boost the ratings. Overall, do not waste your time working at this place where your soul and social life will die.

TRAFFIK Advertising Response
5y
Thank you for taking the time to post your comments on TRAFFIK. We value every team member and are committed to a positive working experience for all. As you expressed some concerns in your review, we wanted to take a minute to provide some responses: • “get paid extremely low” Our salaries are based on market-competitive rates. We are growing and hiring, and in constant communication with candidates and recruiters about market competitive rates. Even in the midst of a pandemic we continue to hire, promote from within, create positions, approve wage increases and fund bonuses. In addition to standard benefits, our employees can qualify for Profit Sharing, Safe Harbor and Cash Basis bonuses that amount to 8% of an employee's annual salary. Since the inception of these bonus programs (avail to all FTE's), TRAFFIK has funded over $2 million dollars in employee incentive bonuses alone - not including over 30+ new bonuses that were approved for payout on January 1, 2021. • “They are too busy pushing for more business” TRAFFIK is proud of the successes we create for our clients and the growth they bring. Any business which is not growing is dying. Our growth allows us to expand our team, promote people into new roles, and serve our clients better. • “Even during the pandemic, not all of the employees got to work from home for the longest time. Pretty much everyone had to be in the office until everyone complained enough and voiced their concerns.” We take the health and safety of every team member seriously. TRAFFIK was one of the first American companies to have employees work from home in response to the pandemic, BEFORE the California governor began to create guidelines in March 2020. We have now returned to the office, and all of our movements during the pandemic have followed all Government guidelines and in many cases been more cautious than the guidelines require, including temperature checks, room capacities, mask policies, new air filtration systems, multiple daily office cleanings and more. • “Don't listen to any of the positive reviews, they are written by their copywriters because they were told to do so just to boost the ratings.” TRAFFIK has never required or assigned any employee to leave a review on Glassdoor. If you continue to have concerns about your time at TRAFFIK, we invite you to speak with TRAFFIK’s HR department so that we can hear your feedback and can thoroughly investigate any issues to continue to ensure we provide one of the best places to work in the industry. ____________ TRAFFIK is a minority-owned global advertising agency committed to long-term client growth and relationships, award-winning creative collaboration, financial responsibility and treating every member of our diverse staff with respect. Recently named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in America, there has never been a better time to join the team at TRAFFIK and help redefine our industry together.

If there's one con, it's how hard it is to choose where to eat lunch at the Irvine Spectrum! Lots of option!

Pros

Nothing good to say about this company is good.

Cons

The owner is only looking out for himself and not his employees. You are paid minimum wage but expected to work around the clock. There is a reason the company uses short term employment agencies to fill jobs and that is because it does not treat its employees right or pay them fairly.
