Pros
Lots of resources to build strong campaigns for clients - different departments are encouraged to interact together to build ideas. Open door policy and all ideas are welcome. Strong clients across a variety of industry verticals.
Cons
Edelman tries to overexert itself to continue driving up revenues - revenues are all that matter and it's not about pleasing clients you already have. Slow, frustrating promotion system - you are only promoted when a team is ready to promote you and the promotion can fit it into their budget, not when clients or colleagues say you are deserving. Incredibly high turnover makes it difficult to stay passionate or inspired. It's "Show Up Differently" culture is a facade; that may work in small companies but creativity is all too often crippled by corporate hierarchy and "best practices."
