Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. I'm so glad you enjoy your work and find it exciting and rewarding. I am concerned about your comment about spending your life at the office. We want our employees to have balance, however they define that for themselves. I encourage you to work with your local HR team and/or your manager to find some strategies to ensure you aren't spending your life at the office. You may also reach out to me. 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.
