      Thanks for your feedback. It's great to hear you had so many opportunities and were able to benefit from the great minds at Edelman. I'm sorry to hear about your onboarding experience. There is the Day 1 HR onboarding and then there is the group level onboarding that should be happening over the course of your first weeks and months. Sounds like one of our teams dropped the ball on the latter. I'd love to hear more if you'd be willing to reach out at maria.okeeffe@edelman.com. Thank you! 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.
