Pros

I've worked here for over 5 years and have absolutely loved the company and specifically the LA office

Cons

The salary pay bands need a serious overhaul to stay competitive and retain talent. If I didn't love the work and the people so much I would have left

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.
