I regret working at this company. I have been treated poorly by supervisors despite my loyalty and skillfulness as an assistant. I have heard of several instances where bosses blocked their assistants from promotion for selfish reasons. For such a low salary ($15/hr starting) its not worth it.
Quali sono alcune delle cose migliori della tuo team?
In the talent department, the assistant culture is great. Everyone gets along and there is no cattiness among the assistants.
Che cosa deve fare il gruppo dirigente per migliorare?
Listening to their employees rather than dictating to them. Actually caring about the individuals well-being rather than using them for their own personal gain.
Cosa ti piace di più della tua azienda?
Good health benefits package for assistants, including a $25/mo. gym stipend. The agent trainee program is competitive to get into and has been vastly improved.
Cosa ti è piaciuto di più del processo del colloquio lavorativo?
I interviewed with the old HR director who was lovely. The company now has a new HR director who I have not interviewed with but I have found her to be quite helpful.
Perché ti senti sottovalutato e che cosa ti farebbe sentire meglio con il tuo compenso?
Despite having more experience than most assistants and despite demonstrating a clear added value to the department and my boss, I am only marginally paid more than most assistants and have not been given a track to promotion.
Cosa ti piacerebbe vedere migliorato presso la tua azienda?
The treatment of non-partner employees can be appalling. Some bosses don't mentor their assistants, and I've heard even some agents have to track their whereabouts with department heads. Also some agents are elitists who judge others without actually getting to know them.
Che cosa si deve cambiare affinché la cultura aziendale migliore?
The assistants should have community snacks. At many competing agencies of the same size, this is a no-brainer. There should be more perks including discount programs, free lunches, etc that other competing agencies offer as well. Assistant bonuses are also low compared to friends at other agencies.
Che cosa sta andando male e come può essere migliorato?
Talent dept. is run inefficiently. There is no organized system for avail checks, and it can take 48 hours for a casting director to receive a response. The dept. does not retain hot young clients, only legacy clients. Young agents aren't included on high-profile client teams. No impressive signings
