Pros

I've worked at a few other larger PR agencies before, and I keep coming back to W2O Group. I actually left the company for a brief while last year to pursue a new opportunity but came running back when I quickly realized this was where I really belonged. This is the only agency in the industry that truly has 360 offerings -- all PR firms nowadays claim they also do digital, social media, marketing, advertising, branding, etc., but W2O Group is the only one that I've found to truly live up to that. We have experts from all fields here, and we have such a wide variety and large volume of accounts across healthcare, consumer, tech and beyond, that you would never run out of opportunities here. The culture at W2O Group is also one-of-a-kind. We definitely embody the "work hard; play hard" attitude -- our work ethic is unparalleled, but we also know how to balance it with plenty of fun company/employee events, and we've all come to form very close friendships here.

Cons

We are a constantly growing company, so there are some minor growing pains from time to time, but only from an administrative perspective.

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.
