Pros
Ogilvy is a company that actually cares about its employees. It strives to be the best in class in all ways. It falls short sometimes but I will always pick a company that is making an effort to do better than one that doesn’t care.
Cons
The squeaky wheel gets the grease. The more you complain, the more likely you are to get what you want whether you deserve it or not.
Advice to Management
Management is doing better about listening to employees. Keep that up. It’s working.
