Pros

-New cool and exciting name that corporate can hide under as: innovative and edgy

Cons

-I feel compelled to right as a former employee -- BFG merged with a few different companies because they were hemorrhaging money for over two years and the loss of Campari. So if they try to sell you on the glitz and glam of "We are new!" don't buy in to Enron 2.0. -How do you make sure your embarrassing past doesn't come back to haunt you? REBRAND and change the name completely. The CEO turns a blind eye to every shady aspect of what this company has done in the past as long his pockets are filled. -When I worked for them we had a perpetual monthly rotation of one person being fired because of "performance"/let go because of loss business/leaving on their own because of the high school work culture. -If you still have any appetite to work for this company after watching their cringiest "hype" video a la their site, then you should be working for Monster Energy Drinks instead of this company...bro.

Pros

9Rooftops was my total favourite agency and workplace. My colleagues were excellent, hugely talented, great humans, full of empathy and grace with a ‘let’s do this team’ attitude. Remote working was supported and everyone was kind and supportive from day one.

Cons

There have been a lot of changes recently, which have been tough and which have seen management changes and loss of team members.

Pros

When the agency was doing well, it was a great place to work. The teams were collaborative, leadership was supportive, and personal development was always a consideration.

Cons

New business is hard to come by and so layoffs are very prevalent. Layoff choices are confusing and short-sighted, leaving mid-level top performers left to do triple the work without a single promotion or raise in sight.
