Pros

I joined Edelman about six years ago in a junior posiiton. I was given the opportunity to take on more and more responsibility and given the opportunity to be entrepreneurial...that is come up with solutions to problems, build tools, create processes and had the support of the leadership team to try things. My career has taken off with Edelman. No two days are ever the same there is always a new client or a new opportunity to learn and grow with.

Cons

Sometimes we get the cart before the horse. It's a bit frustrating sometimes to completely switch gears while you're humming along. Change is ever present and sometimes change is hard to deal with. However if we do not change we do not grow and we'll be left behind.

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.
