Pros

It's a decent resume builder--like an Ivy League school, the name looks good on paper. If you're deeply interested in online marketing or analytics, it's probably a good bet.

Cons

If you're more interested in strategic, site-based work, Digitas is not for you. Additionally, the so-called system of 'meritocracy' is in actuality based entirely on making friends with the right people, who must also be in favor. Quality of work and ethics don't count.

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.
