Pros

Dynamic, high-energy, multi-dimensional staff and services. Results-oriented, risk-takers who mentor staff, counsel clients, add value, collaborate AND want to have fun will thrive. SONOS system, snacks, ping-pong table, talent show, ad hoc team nights out are some of the environmental perks. In-house Creative Services and Analytics offerings equip teams with intelligence and confidence to provide clients with unique creative concepts and insights. Truly integrated and independent. Functions better than holding company subsidiaries required to share clients and fight for revenue.

Cons

Minimal kinks associated with a start-up entering its next phase of growth (e.g., complicated vendor payment process, currently enhancing staff forecasting process, etc.). People who are not self-starters, have difficulty communicating or working with various types of colleagues or find it challenging to flex may feel the environment is too dynamic.

Pros

- none. this company is soul suckingly inefficient and they prefer it that way

Cons

- the most dishonest and toxic work environment that I have ever been a part of - the most unqualified management that I have come across (I have worked across numerous agencies - the work is sketchy at best and clients are grossly over billed. Pressuring employees to over bill clients and trying to force inaccurate or incomplete work through the purposely inefficient review processes is common practice at RC - if you do not over bill your clients your managers will begin to micromanage you in a manner that hints at you not doing enough. - Account teams know nothing about media or advertising and make the most uninformed promises to clients and that media activation is constantly on the hook and being blamed for - they hire very little or no men in general. this place is like a toxic middle school atmosphere, it is truly exhausting to be a part of. - managers will routinely insult you in a way you've never been insulted before at work and nothing will be done about it - information is usually gate kept and teams will prevent you from doing your job while management is asking that you contribute more.
