Pros

Used to be an amazing place to work. Flat org structure. Lots of flexibility to jump into other roles. But the culture has changed since the acquisition. This review would’ve been a solid 4.5 before the acquisition, no I give it a 2.

Cons

Omnicom acquisition ruined the place. People are just disappearing with no explanation. Mass layoffs. Awful new leadership at Omnicom, though the Weber leadership tries their best to deal with the situation. Crap benefits from Omnicom.

Pros

Great place to grow and learn.

Cons

May not translate to a full-time offer. Pay isn't great; the organization faces a lot of attrition.
