Pros

Great people, fun to work with

Cons

Very cheap company; only got one bonus in three years and it was only 1 paycheck worth. Very few promotions in my group. HR and two people I interviewied with misled me about possibility of interim promotion. Requirements for a promotion kept changing. Head of my group rarely communicated creating an environment of paranoia and frustration in the group.

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.
