Red Flag
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- They put a lot of effort into furnishing the office
- The external image of the company is very trendy and stands out from others
- The employees are all very nice and helpful
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- Feedback becomes personal very quickly
- They deviate from their own values, which is inauthentic
- There is a lot of pressure very early on and people don't have time to settle in
- The faults are often sought in others
- You get the impression that they are different from other agencies, but unfortunately they are not
- No bonuses/ benefits
Verbesserungsvorschläge
- Training for the Founders in managing culture
- Founders should behave in a way that feels right and authentic to them, not what they read in books and statistics
- They should rethink their hiring process and not make false promises about positions they cannot keep
Arbeitsatmosphäre
As a lot is expected and there is a lot of pressure, you can sometimes feel uncomfortable in your work. But it helps to talk to colleagues and most of them will help you when the time is right.
Kommunikation
Decisions are often made by managers on their own without first discussing them with the team. Which is a real shame, because it goes against their own values.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
The staff are all very friendly and helpful. No drama between them which stands out from other agencies.
Work-Life-Balance
It depends on what position you are in and how much is on your desk. Many people work enough overtime and often this is not recognized and can‘t be converted into time off or get paid. It's just not possible if there's too much going on all the time.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Sadly, their behavior does not match the way they present themselves to the outside world. The most striking thing is that the vision is much more important than the people. They claim to live a culture of error, but when things don't go well, there's a lot of trouble.
Interessante Aufgaben
There are definitely interesting tasks, but it always depends on which team you are in and whether you can identify with it.
Gleichberechtigung
They have so-called “A players” whose opinions are valued the most and who are pushed the most.
Arbeitsbedingungen
The expectations here are very high, which is sometimes really unrealistic. People work a lot and hard and often this is not even recognized.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Salaries are based on performance and responsibility. If you negotiate well at the beginning, you start with a good basis. But from there it will be difficult to get a higher salary for your performance.
Image
The external image of the company stands out from others and attracts people.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
You can definitely learn a lot here and working together with other employees is a great way to support each other.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Arbeitgeber-Kommentar
Hej there – thank you so much for your review. At C&C, we see feedback as a valuable opportunity to grow. Here’s our perspective on the main points raised:
Bonuses & Salaries: You’re right; we initially lacked a structured development path. That’s now changed. We offer two career paths—vertical and horizontal—each tied to clear salary bands, with a committee that ensures fair and transparent advancement. Our new salary model includes a bonus system aligned with performance and responsibility, core values at C&C.
High Performance: We built C&C with a bold vision: to transform social media into the leading medium. We strive to be “the best pizza place on earth” for social media. This high-performance environment isn’t for everyone, and we’re upfront about that. We recognize, however, that our self-responsibility model for overtime can be challenging, so we’ve introduced guidelines for seeking support when needed.
Vision: You're right, we prioritize our vision and it's ok if you don't agree. Our “F*CK TV. GO SOCIAL” philosophy drives us toward innovation and industry change. Our self-leading teams thrive in this structure, prioritizing autonomy, creativity, and room for growth. To us, the vision is the people—it’s built around creating an environment that attracts top talent.
To make this work, we believe in 100% honesty and radical feedback. We’ve set up monthly NPS, 360-degree feedback, open feedback slots, feedback lunches, and feedback training. It’s unfortunate that these topics didn’t come up in these formats, but we respect your experience.
We know our culture isn’t for everyone, and we’re sorry it wasn’t the right fit for you. Wishing you the best of luck on your journey ahead.
