Pros

Slightly more fun than your average cube-farm, this company is a great way for recent graduates to gain experience in a basic office environment or in sales/marketing. Getting promoted is a real possibility although it's not as easy or as quick as applicants were told (expectation used to be promotion after one year for above average performers, now it's 18-24 months).

Cons

Entry level positions are pretty thankless (not uncommon in the corporate world) but I feel they exaggerate the benefits and use them as an excuse to pay below market level (considering the cost of living in DC). This often leads to a higher than average level of discontent among entry-level associates and a higher turnover. I would only recommend entry-level marketing positions to those interested in sales. For those interested in working in higher ed or healthcare specifically, avoid marketing and try for the research or consulting departments. Also, full disclosure, there's some "evaluating" being done now and it's been hinted that things could change drastically in the next few months- it could even lead to pieces of the company being sold.

Pros

For the most part there are a lot of great people working there, especially in the creative departments. The money is also very fair. Lower-level managers were pragmatic and great to work for.

Cons

Very corporate and sometimes stiff culture (though management tries very hard to act like this is not the case).
