      Great Company If You Fit Into the Culture - Anonymous employee Edelman Employee Review

      Pros

      Great resume builder if you plan on working in PR.

      Cons

      Lacks diversity on several levels. If you are a person of color good luck fitting into the corporate culture and trying to find a mentor (I have heard some of the conversations from mid-level managers) If you aren't a prep you better get started looking and acting the part.

      Thank you for your review. It is disappointing to learn of your experience with and perception of the office culture. However, in our efforts to create a more diverse workplace and inclusive work culture your feedback is valuable to better understand where and how we need to improve. Diversity and inclusion (D&I) is of critical importance to our firm. To help drive our efforts, we will be launching a company-wide D&I training for all levels to ensure each employee understands the importance of and role they play in creating a truly inclusive work environment. I’m committed to working together to continue this journey and grow stronger, and want to hear from you. Please contact me directly at Trisch.smith@edelman.com. Trisch Smith Managing Dir. of Diversity & Inclusion, Edelman U.S.

      Pros

      Edelman gives you real exposure to senior leaders, complex work, and smart people. You can learn a lot quickly, build strong relationships, and get close to how decisions are made. There are also good opportunities to take on meaningful projects if you are proactive and willing to speak up.

      Cons

      The pace can be a lot, and the work can feel reactive at times. Priorities shift quickly and roles often expand beyond the original scope without always having clear boundaries, title growth, or compensation changes. Career growth is possible, but you often have to advocate for it yourself. Overall, Edelman can be a great place to grow if you are adaptable, organized, and comfortable with ambiguity. It works best when you have strong leaders, clear expectations, and support around workload and growth. That last part is impossible to control, so may the odds be in your favor.
