Pros

Casual dress code (with the exception of client meetings) Competitive PTO Competitive in office perks Ample space to grow

Cons

As with any agency expectation of hours can be a bit absurd. There are many people that are online and available 24/7.

I appreciate your acknowledgement of our competitive PTO, office perks and dress code, but most of all that you've felt you have room to grow. That's our hope for all employees. I also appreciate and have taken note of your comment about high expectations of work hours. Thanks for your review. 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.
