A great independent agency to work for - werkgeversreview Senior Creative bij Interweave Agency

Only the location and the space.

Hostile and Coercive Offboarding: The most alarming part of my experience was the exit process. HR resorted to threats, intimidation, and emotional blackmail to force me to sign paperwork. The lack of ethics and basic human respect during this process was shocking. Predatory and Contradictory Contracts: The employment contracts are extremely restrictive, leaving you zero breathing room. They contain highly questionable and contradictory clauses; for example, one paragraph states that overtime is strictly prohibited, while another claims that overtime is permitted and already "included" in your base salary. Zero Job Security and High Turnover: The company culture is highly unstable. Management fires people on the spot with absolutely no prior notice. Consequently, the turnover rate is massive—employees are constantly resigning or actively looking for an escape route. Toxic Management & Micromanagement: The design and creative pipeline is deeply flawed. There is a severe lack of proper creative direction. You are never given clear information or a proper brief to design effectively. Instead, you face constant, unconstructive micromanagement ("move this a bit here, move that there") from an Art Director whose qualifications and position are highly questionable. Stay far away. Your mental health and professional dignity are worth much more.

Work from home options,colleagues are friendly

My experience at this company was one of the most disappointing professional experiences I have had. There is a severe lack of organization, structure, and basic professionalism. Processes are either unclear or constantly shifting without strategic reasoning. Communication is inconsistent, priorities change arbitrarily, and accountability is almost nonexistent.Meetings often consist of lengthy discussions with no clear direction, no actionable outcomes, and no meaningful follow-up. Instead of guidance, employees are left with confusion.There are no structured salary increases, no transparent growth path, and no genuine investment in employees. It is therefore unsurprising that most employees leave within a year. Key stakeholders lack industry expertise and appear to hold their positions due to personal relationships rather than competence. In addition to poor strategic judgment, some also demonstrate unprofessional and dismissive behavior toward employees. The owner does not demonstrate the ability to carry out fundamental leadership responsibilities.In meetings, the owner frequently delivered overly optimistic narratives that failed to reflect the actual state of the organization. While leadership spoke of growth and success, the reality was ongoing dissatisfaction and a continuous pattern of employee departures. Leadership operates with a misplaced sense of superiority, as though offering employment is an act of generosity rather than a professional partnership built on mutual value. Feedback is dismissed, responsibility is avoided, and cultural problems remain unaddressed.
