Pros

1. Wonderful people from all over the world who really care about clients, the work they do and each other. 2. Young, small agency with a boutique/family feel that was recently acquired by Dentsu Aegis Network, which gives you access to training, big names, and resources. 3. You will have an opportunity to work with diverse set of clients and industries (both big and smaller/challenger brands). 4. Entrepreneurial spirit, a lot of responsibility and learning through doing. Management really want you to suceed.

Cons

It is not really a con, but there is a start-up / enterprenerael feel, when you need to roll out your sleeves and work cross-functional: if you this environment is not for you, probably this won't be a good fit.

Pros

Nice people from various different countries. The offices are located in midtown. Some of the people here are smart and they mean very well to help each out.

Cons

Some nice people here. The salaries are low, most people need sponsorship visas which is the plan to keep them stuck. Agency head is a con-artist who uses a ghost writing firm to write all articles which he then posts on LinkedIn, Forbes and other online sites as his own. Very often boasting about the articles as if they are really his own. The agency claims to be the #1 Asian agency but this is not true because they submit bogus numbers to industry publication who don't check (this is why we don’t attend or participate in any Asian industry event). They should do an audit. They are constantly hiring and firing people. They even fill the website with pictures of interns and freelancers to look big. Everyone hates working there but they are stuck because nobody will hire them because a job here will blacklist you from any multicultural agency anywhere There is no work life balance. People who regularly go out to lunch or take days off are looked down upon. Place is run like a family business and so there is no room for growth or promotion. Findr partners are really good and brains behind the operation and nobody understands why they take a back seat. All the positive reviews are not real. Stay away this place will ruin your career.

Dear Smoke and Mirrors, We apologize for the late reply and are saddened by the way you feel. As I am sure you know we always like to address issues of discontent as soon as we are made aware. Please always come to us so that we can address these issues and if our company culture does not bring you what you need, we are always happy to assist helping you to find success and happiness. We have worked hard to create true partnerships with industry leaders so that we can not only ensure the growth of our company but also of our staff. The articles you mention are a collaborative effort, all done between the CEO and a team member. I am happy to say I am one of them that has collaborated with him. In addition, very few leaders write their own published articles, ours just happens to always participate in his and always gives credit to his collaborator. The company and its team have worked hard for it recognition and rankings, all of which have been granted by industry leaders that take their responsibilities as seriously as we do.
