Pros

International agency where you are actually working on clients internationally - this is because the organisation function under a single P&L (entity) thus sharing resources across the globe. They also try to uphold a work-life balance by making sure work does not go beyond working hours and are open to pushing back on deadlines that are unrealistic.

Cons

The usual agency challenges - organisationally + working in silos.

It's been such a pleasure, joy and fresh air to work here. I'm respected, as is my work life balance.

Pros

Good pay. Started as a solid brand with talented coworkers.

Cons

No real upward mobility or promotion opportunity. Higher-level senior management is disconnected from creative leadership and tends to gamble a bit too much with client relationships. Agency promises a lot of benefits and growth opportunities for employees that do not come to fruition. When budgets get tight, they cut creative teams regardless of whether the account and employee have been performing well for the agency.
