Pros

Overall good company to work for. They have good benefits and are currently expanding benefits like maternity/paternity leave. Flexible about online/hybrid work. Fairly transparent about wages, and executive level is accessible for such a big company.

Cons

I wish the promotion cycle was more flexible - they only do raises or promotions once a year in October. They also think they're creating positive change in the world, even though their clients include Exxon, Nestle, etc.

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.
