Pros

The benefits and pay are better than industry standards. There are some great co-workers and senior leadership. Good client list if you're interested in healthcare. 5 week sabbatical after 5 years

Cons

Long hours are always expected and most people are working well into the middle of the night, more so than other agencies. There are some self inflated egos in senior leadership that seem more important to maintain than adapting new processes and technologies. Very weak and unsupportive managers with no training program. Catty and tattle tale culture to get and stay ahead. "Unlimited" time off is a joke since most people feel they're unable to take vacation and end up working through time off anyway.

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.
