Pros

Amazing work environment with great people who are constantly on your side and working with you to help you succeed and work you way up in the company. Big opportunities to manage up and prove your readiness for promotion.

Cons

As working at any agency, the pay is not incredible. However, there are opportunities for bonuses and pay raises. Often pretty crazy hours, 10-12 hour days, which I don't mind, but if you're looking for a 9-5 job, this isn't for you.

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.
