Edelman reviews

Edelman's specialty practices are weak and poorly structured. Upward mobility is difficult for those outside of the traditional institutional structure (if you're not a manager, you're not going anywhere). Notoriously cheap with employees and projects.

To name a few cons, Edelman Seattle is full of poor management, favoritism and toxic people. If you are not a favorite of the general manager, upper management or HR don’t expect to get a promotion, a raise or even be heard when you have an issue. If your manager feels at all threatened by you and your talent, you will be demeaned in front of upper management and clients, not promoted for reasons you will only find out during your review and will be positioned by your manager as “not meeting the mark” (regardless of meeting/exceeding client expectations). Some other cons include low pay, long hours and very little appreciation.
