And, you're right, when you put so many talented people together, there are bound to be people that are easier to work with than others. Helping our people collaborate more easily is important to us, so we continually strive for improvement. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director; Human Resources

Love the thought on pushing sabbaticals earlier in the career. Please share any ideas you might have to make this work with your local HR team. Agree - the People at Edelman are topnotch!

Pros

Good set of clients, new approach to PR

Cons

Even though it has a large network, it is of no use when old employees are transitioning to other countries and need support.

Sorry to hear your feedback on making a transition to another area of our company. A few years ago, Richard Edelman made Globalization of our business a top priority and since then we have created a Global Mobility department. I would encourage you to reach out to Erin Puplava directly should you have any inquiries about making a move!
