Pros

I worked here 10 years ago and came back after leaving for five years. I came back because the business had grown, many of the same clients were still here and growing, and staff I had hired had stepped up the ladder. It seemed to be on the right path, and I've been back now almost five years.

Cons

You will never work as hard as you do here, but it is worth it on many levels. Just be ready to run (and learn and grow and have fun ...)

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.
