I'm glad you enjoy your colleagues and consider our culture fun - me too! I'm sorry you've felt your career development to be limited. Additional career pathing is something we're actively working on and I hope you'll find it beneficial. We definitely pay for all time worked, including overtime for non-exempt employees. I'm interpreting your comment to mean that you've worked long hours some weeks, which can happen in our environment. If you feel you were not paid for time worked as a non-exempt employee please reach out to your local HR contact or me as soon as you can. Thanks for your feedback. Maria O'Keeffe, US Chief Talent Officer

Thanks for your post. I find our benefits to be quite competitive but I understand that people value different things and often that's impacted by their life stage when it comes to benefits. Our intent is to provide a holistic suite of meaningful benefits to all employees. If you have specific feedback to share on how we could improve our benefits, please do reach out to your local HR team or to me at Maria.OKeeffe@edelman.com. Maria O'Keeffe, US Chief Talent Officer
