1 man nightmare. - Anonymous employee LiveTrends Design Group Employee Review

First of all, the reviews that you see stating that the ceo made everyone write positive reviews to blanket the horrible reviews are completely true. I confirmed it with other current employees. (No Shame, this ceo) Ridiculous amount of turnover. The employees that wrote the fake reviews might say people don’t last because they can’t “keep up.” That’s pile of crap. Most professionals that come in this company leave because they realize this company is a dumpster fire. (Mainly because of CEO and processes or lack thereof). Only people that stay have either been grown from lower level positions from when the company started, or people that don’t know their worth. The majority of the people are really great to work with. Almost everyone including the middle management (COO, CFO, DOS, NPD) are hardworking people that often get screwed by the man child that is the CEO. People try to help each other as much as possible, but are completely flooded with work. The ceo is an aggressive, abrasive, and contradicting cancer to this company. Any time someone wants to create a process and do things the right way, he will do whatever he can to just get it done as fast as possible or go over them. He has no grasp of consequences of doing things with just speed because truthfully he doesn’t understand much of anything except for his knowledge about the “industry” (he pretends to though). He openly bashes and threatens work life balance, and doesn’t believe you should leave on time. If you work here, don’t expect much of the family life balance. If you have kids, I wouldn’t work here at all. The management doesn’t understand because frankly, barely any of them have kids. They’re only accommodating if you are hourly, hence you can make up hours on weekends or stay late if you need to pickup/drop off kids. Also, iv only seen that with one person. Everyone has way too many responsibilities (expected for a smaller company, but still it’s just ridiculous)
