    Arnold Worldwide Anonymous:   (Past Employee - 2007)

    Pros

    They want you to succeed, not just the company.
    They really care about good work.
    I had great advancement opportunities.
    Coworkers were bright, fun and down to earth.
    If you earn management's trust, you can really chart your own course.
    My boss was super-critical about the work, but I never felt the criticism was aimed at me personally. So I was pushed pretty hard while keeping my pride intact.
    Decent holidays/vacas/benes.
    They're motto when I first came aboard was "Smart, creative and nice." I found that to be true.

    Cons

    I'm probably underpaid.
    Digital has seen a lot of turnover from C-level on down.
    Felt the effects of being owned by Havas—'meeting the numbers' is omnipresent and we tended to be held back in areas such as media.

    Advice to Senior Management

    Not sure if it's feasible but I wish they could've tried to run the company as if it weren't owned by a media-centric holding company.
