Pros

Great clients, occasionally gives bonuses

Cons

The Chicago office feels like a place where only certain people fit in. It genuinely felt like a country club with mostly white women who didn't offer diverse perspectives. It was not an ideal place to work. The best part about the job was my clients.

Pros

Some of the smartest people in the business Opportunities you won't find anywhere else Opportunity to chart your career path in the direction you want and take on leadership roles at every level

Cons

Work to do on tackling sexism and racism in the workplace Major burnout culture Experience depends entirely on your manager/leadership team Could pay more competitively - I think there is some sense that because of the Edelman name they can pay less...an "anyone would kill to work here attitude"
