Pros

Great people that made it fun to come to work; good chemistry across teams; new building is nice; recommended agency to learn the fundamentals if you are new to advertising; work life balance is great with occasional pitch craze that could keep you there late/over the weekend (but not the norm comparatively)

Cons

Many of the clients are older brands so the agency struggles to push the work forward; not a lot of client growth and its hard to get a salary increase; pay is not competitive; at times, politics feel like they are more of a focus than the actual work

Pros

New regime may finally consolidate companies. I had good managers.

Cons

After years of senior management pitches and dismal results the morale gets blase'.
