Pros

True desire to help creative and marketing talent find good contracts and to help employers find good interrum creative help.

Cons

-- Terribly contradictory and inequitable application of compensation policies - all subject to individual manager interpretation on sharing of credit when helping out on a role or covering a job long term while there is a vacancy. One manager would say yes, another no. -- When shifted to new manager had a totally different work experience. -- Such frequent re-orgs lends a sense of instability and not knowing how to progress in career. -- Localized offices without local management ends up having strange inter-team dynamics and no one to set consistent standards.

Great compensation and benefits. Great opportunities to move on to competition if gig doesn't work out.
