Working at Razorfish in Seattle, WA: 4 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Seattle, WA Area

"I have been with Razorfish for over 3 and a half years. During that time, the company has changed dramatically, and not for the better. Razorfish has lost several big name accounts over the past few months and has not won any business in a while to compensate. They have started layoffs of those teams, 2 rounds of layoffs in two months. Talented people leave all the time for better positions, and management doesn't seem to care. My advice - stay away. The pay is also lower on average."

"I have worked with Razorfish since 2011. The talent that is employed here is amazing. I have learned so much to help me excel within the industry. This is a great company to work for."

"Razorfish has great culture and lots of growth opportunities."

"Razorfish is so terrible to work for, they might as well change their name to Initech."

What do you like about working at Razorfish?

"Media planning, interacting with clients, finding new innovative media solutions, working autonomously to complete goals and objectives"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I would not apply for a job at Razorfish unless I really needed a job or experience. Other than that, the level of waste, inefficiency and micromanagement make this place hell for anyone with an independent mind. Conform to the yes-man mold here, or you'll sink."

What don't you like about working at Razorfish?

"Full of bureaucracy, poor pay. Management often expects unreasonable deadlines with no regard to work/life balance. Lots of optional meetings that management makes mandatory that do not provide value; in fact they only decrease productivity. Extreme micro-management. Benefits get worse every year, yet management pitches changes as a good thing--good for the company b/c they pay less for benefits, bad for employees b/c the burden is shifted to them."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Stop constant reorganizations. Stop unreasonable demands on employees. Stop pointless meetings where management talks simply to hear themselves speak. Provide better benefits."
