Pros

The Brick Lane office is a wonderful working environment: ideal location, great architecture, beautiful roof terrace and fantastic parties. I've worked with some incredibly talented people, and had the opportunity to learn from experts across many different disciplines.

Cons

LBi is in a state of perpetual acquisition: always buying up another agency before the last addition has been satisfactorily bedded down. A new department springs up every month, without anyone knowing what it is or does. News of pitch wins/losses reaches you from external sources before internal announcements. Senior management continually fail to communicate a coherent vision for the future of the agency. Consequently, staff turnover is insanely high.

Pros

Like most hold co's - its all dependent on your team, but the people on my team are genuinely kind and smart folks. Plus its Publicis owned, so business is actively being won

Cons

Classic agency stuff, overworked with many 50+ hour weeks. Publicis' current model is to understaff instead of layoff, so basically every team could use another person. Client has a ton of issues which is not on Digitas at all but does impact the experience.
