Pluspunten

While this digital UX agency may not be the ideal fit for everyone, it can provide a unique learning experience for those who thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments. The absence of structure and abundance of challenges can be seen as an opportunity for personal and professional growth. Some team members might appreciate the chance to wear multiple hats and gain exposure to various aspects of the field. That said, it's important to carefully consider the long-term implications of working here, as the lack of stability and compensation concerns can be significant drawbacks. The leadership team's approach may not align with your career goals, so it's essential to weigh the pros and cons before committing to a role at this agency.

Minpunten

Working at this digital UX agency comes with a myriad of challenges, including a glaring lack of structure that often results in a chaotic and disorganized work environment. Many employees grapple with feelings of being underpaid, leading to financial stress and job dissatisfaction. The relentless workload and absence of a clear work-life balance are further exacerbated by the high turnover rate, which creates a pervasive sense of instability. Dysfunctional processes, coupled with a lackluster leadership team, hinder not only career growth but also the overall work culture. The prevailing negativity and stress can take a toll on employees' well-being, making this agency a less-than-ideal choice for those seeking a stable and supportive work environment.

Reactie van CreateApe

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience at Create Ape has not met your expectations. We recognize that our fast-paced, dynamic environment may not be the perfect fit for everyone. However, we believe it offers unique opportunities for those who thrive in such settings to grow both personally and professionally. Regarding structure and stability, we are continuously working on improving our processes to create a more organized work environment. Our compensation packages are designed to be competitive and reflect the industry standards, and we strive to be transparent about these from the outset. Balancing multiple roles and responsibilities can indeed be challenging, but it also provides valuable exposure to various aspects of the UX field. We understand the importance of work-life balance and are committed to offering flexibility and support to help our team manage their workload effectively. High turnover and instability are issues we take seriously, and we are actively working to address these concerns to create a more supportive and stable work culture. We appreciate your feedback on leadership and will use it as a basis for ongoing improvements. We also recommend reaching out to the CEO as he has an open door policy for anyone in the company to discuss any concerns directly with him.

Remote work, flexible schedule, and the people (not including leadership) are great.

Minpunten

Oh boy, where do I begin? Well, leadership is a joke. The CEO is a slimy, smooth-talker who has no clue how to run a company. If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself working for CreateApe here's what you have to look forward to: Each day, you'll have multiple projects to toggle between. All of which have ridiculous deadlines and expectations. You'll regularly be pulled off and put back on projects at different points in the timeline. Let's just say that project management is non-existent. You'll be underpaid. By like, a lot. If you're based in the US you'll be classified as an independent contractor so you get no benefits and have to pay your own taxes. Yay! Job security? What even is that? There are regular layoffs and "furloughs" because the CEO doesn't know how to handle finances. Oh, and you thought you were the expert in UX design? No, you aren't. The *client* is. And you will accommodate their every wish. Even if it makes absolutely zero sense from a UX perspective and results in an unusable product. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this company. I'm pretty sure they'll be out of business in a couple of years anyway.
