Pros

Edelman allows for flexibility in your schedule. There are no micro managers here, everyone knows what they need to get done and they do it. Though, the leadership here is excellent so if you do need assistance or direction, they are there. Also, it is an extremely creative agency where big ideas are dreamed up and executed. We are true partners with our clients.

Cons

I really don't see a downside. As with any large agency, there are certain processes and procedures (like common review) that could be improved upon but HR is very receptive to ideas and are always trying to improve. The printers seem to always have issues. Small gripe.

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.
