Pros

My two main takeaways from working at Gripped for almost 3 years now are: People: The Gripped team are friendly, fun and enthusiastic. Working with colleagues in the office, or going for the odd drink after work becomes a lot more fun with such people. Learning: The founders' knowledge & expertise from years in the industry trickle through the entire business, resulting in a team of extremely competent marketers. Managers (driven by the team's core - Scarlett) are helpful & constructive. With the internal training sessions, client comms, upskilling/cross-skilling at desks you'll find yourself learning rapidly & effectively. Would recommend working at Gripped to all aspiring marketers.

Kontras

The environment is fast-paced. To the right employee, this setting is a perfect one to rapidly develop marketing & client relationship skills in a short space of time. The wrong/unfit employee will find this too much. There is a great support network and training/onboarding period that make success in this environment achievable for anyone willing to make the effort.

Pros

- Team are talented, hardworking people who when they have the time are willing to help - You will gain lots of valuable experience and be exposed to different businesses and industries, getting an impressive set of skills in a short time - The team are young and keen to make friends and socialise - The company mission is exciting and the founders are passionate about delivering a good experience to clients

Kontras

- Outdated company culture glorifies long hours and working until burnout, managers frequently work weekends and team work evenings to get tasks completed - “Flexible” hybrid working policy isn’t practiced, working from home is discouraged - Pay isn’t competitive so they hire a young team - No real socialising unless you drink and are the same age as the team - No HR department or mental health first aider

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and for calling out the strengths of the team, we agree they’re talented and supportive. It's worthwhile addressing the cons head on. We don’t celebrate long hours and we don’t expect weekend work. Peaks happen around urgent client issues and are part of agency life, but they’re the exception, not the rule. When extra time is unavoidable, we expect managers to plan better next time and to offer time off in lieu. We actively coach against “always on” behaviour. Our policy is hybrid by default and remote days are standard. We ask people to be in when collaboration or training benefits from it (client workshops, onboarding, quarterly planning), but discouraging working from home is not our policy. If that was your experience in the team, we would have like to know when you were here so we could address it. We’re a small business. We don’t run a traditional HR department and don’t need one at our size. Founders and managers handle people matters directly, with clear 1:1s, feedback cycles and access to external advice when specialist input is required. As we grow, we keep investing in manager development and capacity planning. Sometimes don't work out the way you want, expect or hope for. We’re not perfect, but we keep improving and keep moving forward. If you’re open to it, contact the founders directly so we can understand the specifics behind your comments.
