Pros
If you're an account manager or recruiter, they pay well, and there's a lot of opportunity to make money. Account managers do get out of the office quite a bit. The pay is the only reason this gets two stars from me rather than one.
Cons
Long hours - you will work every day from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. if not longer. There is an "unwritten code" among the team that you shouldn't take too long for lunch or be out of the office too often. The metrics are almost unreachable; while you're there, you'll hardly have time to breath before you have to get on that next phone call. They employ the sales tactics of used cars salesmen - they want you to be pushy and overly aggressive to the point you've annoyed your clients. They only care about the almighty dollar, not the candidates or the clients. They'll stick with 6-10 core candidates and place them on several different projects just to make money for themselves rather than place a new candidate. They will tell you that you have a year to "ramp up" to where they want you to be. However, if you're not quite where they want you to be after 3 months or so, they'll let you go. There were 3 people let go during the short time I was there and one person left on their own. VERY HIGH TURNOVER. Little to no training about the recruiting or technical side of the creative industry. If you have no experience with creative/marketing/advertising, or recruiting, forget it.
