Gravillis Employee Reviews for Junior Designer

"Pros: - Cool work within the entertainment industry. They are known as the agency to produce "edgy" & thoughtful design. - Owner/Chief Creative Director is patient and knowledgeable. - DYI and hand done design is encouraged. - Great-looking offices with up-to-date equipment. - Everything is very organized - Fully stocked kitchen. - Occasional happy hours on their cool deck. Cons: - Team does not feel like a team, there is no unity whatsoever. - Extremely poor leadership skills with language that borders on abusive. - Extremely poor communication among the staff, information does not get passed on and contradictory directions are often given. - Really high turnover rate (40%+ in 2014) - Sexist mentalities that are condoned by the administrative side. - Negative attitudes, huge egos. - Poor life-work balance. It's the type of culture where one is deemed a bad employee if you don't want to work 10+ hrs everyday, even if there is nothing that needs to be worked on. Getting out on time is rare. - Limited parking: they only have parking spaces for about 10 employees, the rest have to find street parking. -The owners choose to do very little, if nothing, about the problems stated above."
