Pros

- There are many skilled individuals who possess extensive knowledge in their respective fields and serve as valuable resources for both colleagues and management. - This position offers the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects and networks, providing ample opportunities for creativity and innovation. -

Cons

- As the company has undergone expansion and organizational changes that were not well-received by employees, there has been a noticeable decrease in overall morale, which was not high to begin with through the pandemic and merging of multiple groups. - From a technological and operational standpoint, the company has not made adequate adjustments to accommodate the needs of creative departments in a hybrid post-pandemic work setting. While other departments have received investments in infrastructure, the creative service department has been provided with insufficient resources to effectively operate in this new hybrid environment. - Over the past 3-4 years, the company has undergone a series of mergers involving three separate entities. Unfortunately, the integration process was poorly managed, resulting in a lack of clearly defined roles, established communication channels between departments, and power struggles that marginalized experienced employees in favor of unqualified ones.

Pros

Good pay, good people, good teams. It's the best pay I've had in my professional career. My immediate supervisors were amazing. Inclusive environment.

Cons

The company is contracting, losing hundreds of employees year after year. Layoffs are non-stop; they dropped their wellness program that used to net participants $500 a year toward their HSA's, all in an effort to raise the plummeting stock price. They are fully leaning into AI, mostly for the worse. They've been a step behind in the industry for decades, and while the people here are great, the poor strategy behind most decisions is leading to this company's death. I doubt they survive the end of the decade.
