Pros

Edelman is filled with smart, talented, hard-working people. Working for Edelman gives you the opportunity to learn from the best, live on the cutting edge of communication innovation and work with world-class companies and brands.

Cons

Edelman seems to place more value on junior talent than senior talent, offering perks that appeal to 20-somethings (i.e., happy hours), but they fall short when it comes to perks for mid- and senior-level talent and retention at those levels.

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.
