      Pros

      1. Good salary compared to others in the industry 2. Amazing Parties 3. Interesting work culture 4. You will learn a lot on how the PR world works 5. Work from home benefits (twice or thrice in the month or so) 6. You will be able to make a name out of your own with the exposure that you get in the PR world 7. Free Lunch everyday 8. Reimbursements are quick 9. Admins are the best when it comes to travel or cabs 10. Friends you make here would be there for life time.

      Cons

      1. Favoritism 2. Dedication is measured on how long you stay after working hours 3. Managerial dictatorship 4. Additional pressure on employees to work on Saturdays and Sundays too 5. Hierarchy domination 6. Poor work life balance 7. If you are a fresher or if you are starting from a small designation, your seniors work is yours 8. Bosses are to be treated like Gods 9. High level office politics, the office is a parliament of its own 10. Poor appraisals and growth is restricted once you become a manager

      Thanks for your review and I hope you'll let me know what office you're in, so I can make sure to join the upcoming holiday party! All jokes aside, I appreciate your candid feedback. While we do provide a number of different opportunities to hear from staff both anonymously and not, we will make sure to prioritize getting employees and leaders talking on a more regular basis, so the full employee experience can be considered at all levels. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director, US HR

      Pros

      I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

      Cons

      Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
