Pros
Solid training scheme for those starting out in the industry, genuine flexible working policy, lovely colleagues for the most part and individual teams/accounts vary
Cons
You are very much shielded from the workload during the allegro training scheme, once you’ve graduated, the workload piles up and senior management care more about timesheets and account revenue than your welfare. Steady stream of burned out senior writers left my team during my 3+ years with the company (including multiple acquisitions and rebrands). The CD&R acquisition effectively killed the company culture, it got too big - I joined multiple rebrands before when my agency was called Ashfield Healthcare. New business is won and immediately staff are called on to help recruit more staff because there isn’t the resource to deliver said new business.
