Pros

Benefits are great. No premiums.

Cons

This place has no loyalty to anyone. You are literally just a number to them and they have no issue disposing of you regardless of your tenure and contributions. They callously look for opportunities to fire you and save money. They have been laying people off nonstop for over a year and have never once acknowledged it. Don’t work here!!

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

Leadership hasn't always been consistent with their words and actions, making it feel scary and tumultuous at times.

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.
