Three Ships Reviews

We revel in a culture that is much more about satiating the CEOs ego and on boarding unsuspecting clients to a company that doesn't even have its own offerings figured out.

Barely anyone took time off because the workplace really stresses working a lot. I was yelled at for taking a lunch break - instead told to "shove a smoothie or salad in my face" and then get back to work; told to "burn the midnight oil" and work at least 60+ hours until I "earned my place" (in 10 years or so); and told that I shouldn't talk to my family during the week, much less my friends. Another coworker was told that they should stop writing for their personal blog they have been working on for years, because "if you have time to write a blog outside of work, you are not working enough". The work/life balance leaves a lot to be desired. One problem I personally had was that the management didn't make any of these expectations clear until you violated them. I barely saw my manager outside of group meetings, often waiting 3-4 days to get an answer to a fairly simple question. They tried to fire me because my manager "wasn't seeing me work hard enough" (because we barely saw each other). When coworkers then spoke up for me, praising my work ethic, the company told me they might keep me after all. I had to convince them I was actually doing my job, despite the results I had to show for it. I was in limbo for several weeks before being told they were keeping me on. Shortly after, I was able to secure another job elsewhere, leading me to quit anyway because I didn't feel like it was worth staying. While the individual team members were great, the organization's priorities as a whole didn't line up with mine and it felt like the company is growing way too fast to keep up with an individual's needs. I started as an entry-level and did not feel like I was getting the support and training I needed to fully understand/succeed in my role. If you have experience and know what you're getting into, that's great. But if you are new to digital marketing, I personally would not recommend ThreeShips.
