In a word: NIGHTMARE. - Anonymous employee Edelman Employee Review

This is by far the most ethically bankrupt, hostile and incestuous place I have worked in my entire career. You're hired for one job, given no flight path, no goals set, dismissive and absentee managers and then the backstabbing begins. There is no one to trust in this place. Seriously, no one. It's Lord of the Flies meets incompetency and rampant unethical behavior. There is NO reason to consider a position here. No fancy title, no promises of bonus or advancement, no salary--seriously nothing is worth it. If you want to work at a big agency - and you're junior (or senior for that matter) - go to Weber or a WPP, Publicis or Interpublic agency. The firm's monicker of communications marketing is a complete joke. It will not catch up to the creative agencies, because the talent and the ideas - and the competence - are not there. This shop is 1990s "PR light" and not to be taken seriously. There's far greater talent and collegial environments out there. Do not settle. PS: I'd question any of the overly positive Glassdoor reviews as placed by the company itself. If you don't take my advice - fine- just please consider this carefully before you dive into something you're bound to regret.
