Pros

Edelman has a good company culture filled with great people and servicing top-notch clients with public engagement needs. The company's visionary leadership is a positive motivating force and I'm proud to be an employee of Edelman.

Cons

From my perspective, there honestly aren't very many downsides of working at Edelman. The company offers a variety of career paths and professional growth opportunities that employees can fully utilize.

Pros

Edelman is a great place to work. Very talented people work here. Their are numerous opportunities for exposure within the company. Edelman recognizes people's strengths and places them in positions to exceed. People who work here are best in class and have a great attitude.

Cons

My only con about working here is that pay is not as great as comparable companies. They do standard one-year reviews and that is the only time, most often to receive a pay increase. Most people work way more than 40 hours a week and that is almost an expectation. Work/life balance is getting better and the company is doing a good job at voicing their support for time off and breaks as needed.
