Thanks for your review. I'm so happy to hear you found your growth opportunities fruitful. While work/life balance can vary from employee to employee, we empower managers to encourage employees at all levels to define balance and take advantage of our ample time off, flexible work schedules and other programs. I'm sorry to hear that wasn't your observation and I hope you've found your perfect balance since. Thanks for sharing feedback that we can use to improve experiences for current and future employees. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director, US HR

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.
