Business Outlook
Pros
good, big name to have on your resume. Helps with headhunters on LinkedIn - Edelman is a stamp of approval. Good client names, though some big names are leaving to smaller, more inexpensive agencies.
Cons
Senior leaders (in Toronto) are consistently promoted, while junior account executives can barely afford lunch. The teams are dwindling, and there is desperate need for new energy - long-term employees are heading to kinder, more welcoming employers with realistic leadership and client expectations. You consistently preach proper employee engagement and transparency, however, you continue to lose staff at a rapid pace to limited career advancement, financial support and mentorship.
