Poor Experience

Pros

It has an ideal setting and a great corporate job experience for those looking to transition into this field. They do have an excellent holiday and days off package for those concerned about work to life balance, but you need to be a salaried employee in order to receive your full benefits.

Cons

Severe miscommunication between the employer and employee. You must be able to follow up consistently with HR and upper management in order to get the basic employee set up. I didn't receive my login info for 2 weeks when I started. When I was laid off, I was informed the day of that my position no longer exists in this site (and designated overseas) and that I had 30 minutes to remove my belongings from my desk, where I was then escorted out. It was devastating and I wished I had more time working in the company and the team I was assigned to. It was an okay experience that ended terribly and it shouldn't have ended that way.

Grey from the '90s called, and they want their agency culture back

Pros

Nothing positive to say, generally. Pay is good, at certain levels, but not for all.

Cons

Agency management focused entirely on growth and revenue, to the detriment of all else. A toxic, politically-charged environment, in which attention to the quality and integrity of the work is appallingly low and inconsistent. People very quickly become cogs in the Publicis machine, with little room to advance, improve or have an impact beyond their day-to-day servitude. The only people who claim to like it here are either one of the overlords, working on a specific business at a particular moment in time, or simply not paying attention.

Disappointment at Re:Sources USA

Pros

At first when I first joined the work was challenging but at the end it became dull and less work. Co-workers make you sane!

Cons

Turnover rate was high. Full time positions were being replaced by Temps. Upper management never appreciated employees' hard work and contribution. No room for growth due to clingy upper management.
