Pros

ogilvy has a terrific brand still - most innovative and forward thinking of all the big agencies by a mile. great culture and people for the most part. miles is great and shaking things up - very needed esp in ny.

Cons

compensation is not tied to performance. lack of transparency sometimes on what's the direction for the agency and how they intend to beat the likes of crispin.
