      Pros

      - Supportive Management - Account Diversity - High profile clients - Expansive network/you can find an expert on basically anything within the network

      Cons

      - Little to no work-life balance - An expectation that 40hrs a week is not enough / you're not pulling your weight - Can be a bit catty at times - SO MUCH micromanaging - Low pay

      Mixed bag review. Most importantly, I'm glad that you feel supported by your manager, which is so important. I hope knowing that, you can have a conversation about work-life balance and maybe about the proper levels of oversight that work for both you and your manager to address the percieved micromanaging. If you don't know how to approach it, reach out to your HR/Talent partner who can help you with this. Good luck! Maria O'Keeffe, US Chief Talent Officer

      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.
