Pros

Historically had some impressive talent, but many of the best have left

Cons

Leadership + HR have a long history of actively ignoring highly inappropriate and toxic workplace behavior. They just keep moving egregious offenders to different offices or roles (aka doing the Manzini), instead of properly addressing or holding accountable

Pros

Great clients. Great people to work with.

Cons

Office politics. Silly things that were sold to the client that just did not make sense.

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.
