Pros

They have big brands, so this is a great place to be a creative freelancer to build their portfolios. There are some absolute gems of people that work here-- you just have to find them and reach out to them early on.

Cons

The company has recently gone through a shift (publicized in advertising publications, so it's not a secret) where it has lost a large chunk of business. Outwardly it attempts to pivot by positioning itself as a creative agency, but there has been no infrastructure change to retain or reward the mid-to-lower level talent.

Pros

-Good location -Nice/convenient facilities on campus -9-5 hours and everyone takes lunch everyday -The office is closed the week between xmas and new years -Benefits, including medical insurance are very average -super easy to collect a paycheck with minimal effort -Good stepping stone for entry levels to get a foot in the door

Cons

-super easy to collect a paycheck with minimal effort -upper management is more interested in collecting a paycheck than growing their teams- they tend to be clueless about the intricacies of each account so you can't count on learning much from them -The work is often about taking the easy way out not making the most effective decisions for clients -sterile environment -Absolute lack of learning/growth- it's hard to get opportunities to learn even when you push for them -Lots of catty women in a culture where brown-nosing prevails

Pros

People are really cool, plenty of happy hours, good variety of clients (although majority of work is Honda).

Cons

Slow to promote, base pay is really terrible unless you leave and come back, lots of politics in any decision.
