Pros

Has the reputation of being a good company to work for

Cons

Junior staff get more than 6 accounts at any one time and co. still expect good work. Bosses give only lip service to problem but keep adding work such as internal projects and new business on top of work. There is always an excuse but never an excuse to help me. Am let down by promises. CEs who stay late and kiss up to bosses get favouritism. Feedback goes nowhere. Don't want people to make mistake of working here.

Pros

Great training environment, well respected. Well located. Clients relatively easy to come by. Smart staff.

Stingy, competitive within offices between business units and between business units in other offices. Our own collateral material is lacking (even though we make it for our clients)
