Pros

Learnings is fast and multi faceted. An employee can make a difference at any level if they are creative, committed and willing to push the boundaries. The firm has some of the best brands globally as clients.

Cons

The management has not been able to do a good job of keeping the culture intact and it has got diluted with very few long termers still in the firm. The leadership also doesn't seem to have a clear vision for the firm. Loyalty and good work don't necessarily result in good compensation

Pros

I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

Cons

Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
