Pros

This is a great company if you're just out of school. You'll be given the title of "manager." They run the day-to-day business and get to judge the creative work. This company will find any excuse to throw a party! Their great perks are free drinks every couple of weeks and a nice, new coffee bar.

Cons

Most people I know haven't had a raise in at least two years. But we're under ridic pressure to keep putting in more time so the company can make more money. So Publicis gets richer and we burn out with no raises to show for it.

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.
