Pros

Solid training scheme for those starting out in the industry, genuine flexible working policy, lovely colleagues for the most part and individual teams/accounts vary

Cons

You are very much shielded from the workload during the allegro training scheme, once you’ve graduated, the workload piles up and senior management care more about timesheets and account revenue than your welfare. Steady stream of burned out senior writers left my team during my 3+ years with the company (including multiple acquisitions and rebrands). The CD&R acquisition effectively killed the company culture, it got too big - I joined multiple rebrands before when my agency was called Ashfield Healthcare. New business is won and immediately staff are called on to help recruit more staff because there isn’t the resource to deliver said new business.

Pros

I’ve been really fortunate in my experience here. The clients I work with are genuinely kind and collaborative, and my colleagues are truly wonderful to work alongside. I know not everyone may have the same experience, but I feel lucky to work with such great people. The benefits are also a strong positive. There’s a generous 401(k) match, overall benefits have been good in my experience, and the unlimited PTO policy is a meaningful perk that offers a lot of flexibility.

Cons

Advancement opportunities can sometimes depend heavily on the revenue associated with your client or account, which may limit growth for those supporting smaller or less prioritized business areas. Additionally, there can be a perception of favoritism in certain situations, which may impact how opportunities and recognition are distributed. Promotion timing can be inconsistent and often depends heavily on the revenue impact of your account or role. Some employees may move up more quickly, while others can go several years without a promotion. Since there is not a consistent company-wide adjustment or merit cycle, salary progression is largely tied to promotion timing rather than regular annual increases.
