There are a very few good people in the company who genuinely try to make a difference and protect their teams from the politics. If you can get in one of those teams you may enjoy working here.
Relaxed work environment.
Fairly decent coffee machine, really good food market round the corner.
Inconvénients
Besides great colleagues, management is bad in every single way.
There is a clear lack of vision.
Not a workplace I will recommend. To avoid at all cost.

Thank you for your review. As you have given us a 2* rating rating and we’d like to respond to a few of the points that you raise.
We are glad that you feel there are “very good people” in the company who try and make a difference. We agree with you and would like to think that this extends across all levels of Infectious Media in every team. You talk about management being “bad in every single way”. We know that we are not perfect, we are all working hard to keep up with recent rapid growth at Infectious Media which saw our headcount double in a 12 month period. We’ve listened to feedback from our staff and as a result of this have made further attempts to improve our communication as well as the ways in which we share the vision of the Business - so that people understand the direction that we are taking. Staff are asked to quiz our Founders at our Quarterly All Staff Meeting with any question that they would like answered (anonymously if they prefer). We also offer the opportunity for all staff to shape and direct our workplace via our Employee Forum, where any point can be raised and discussed, with a view to changes being made where needed.
We like to think that the best way to affect changes as an employee is via a two way dialogue where we can really understand what the key issues are for our staff and help to make improvements. This can be done via the channels listed above or if you would prefer, you can speak to a senior manager or a member of the HR team so that we can try and help.

Avantages
-Free lunch on Mondays
-Worked with some intelligent team members in ad tech and programmatic
Inconvénients
- Completely unstable company with executive management that makes knee jerk reactions and feels above having to retain tier 1 level clients.
- Major accounts being run out of UK by inexperienced employees in their mid 20s that have been promoted to senior titles has created major management issues.
- Terrible pay for UK employees.
- Nothing special about the tech/bidder. Cheap inventory and IM cashes out on large margins. Not forward thinking and tech builds were usually client requests or replications of what other companies have already done. CTO was painful to work and added nothing of value - any client issue was handled with a response to “calm down”.
-HR/People team was highly disorganized and not well versed in basic HR functions here in the US. After the US office was shutdown, team did not receive final pay for over 10 days after scheduled date and employees have still not received unemployment benefits due to lack of/incorrect response from their team.
- Cheap. This is the resounding word that describes IM.
- IM wants to be global, but cannot make outer offices work. Chicago was the 3rd office shutdown by IM along with Paris and Germany. I’d be concerned if I was in their Singapore office.
-IM going through an agency 2.0 transition with little to zero input or direction from executive management on how to make the transition work for teams actually responsible for executing.
