      Amazing culture

      Management Supervisor
      Former Employee, more than 5 years
      Chicago, IL
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This culture is rooted in David Ogilvy and his many Ogilvyisms. There is a tribal mentality to this which connects all the people who work here.

      Cons

      The pay is lower than many similar sized agencies

          Typical

          Project Manager
          Current Contractor, less than 1 year
          New York, NY
          Recommend
          CEO Approval

          Pros

          Good place to work for a season.

          Cons

          Would be great if they could get their backend stuff in order. Systems are so dated doing timesheets is a hassle. It’s clear they prioritize their pockets. Creative is either understaffed or under qualified, while account teams and layers of managers are always being hired. Surely we can innovate the way we preach.

        Underwriter

        I've completed an initial phone screening interview, followed by a 2-hour interview with the Department VP. Next in the process are three separate 90-minute peer interviews. Is there a possibility of another interview after the peer interviews, or should I anticipate receiving an offer?

        Administrative Assistant

        I have an interview with the owner coming up and how would you answer if the they ask when I can start when I have two set/booked vacations in the upcoming months? For reference: I leave for one in 2 weeks for a month and the other one is in the beginning of December for 2 weeks. I don’t want to say immediately because of the trips, but if I don’t say immediately then I might lose the job. Help!

        Postdoctoral Researcher

        Hello guys, I applied as Chemical engineer in a big company and I did with them all the interview steps (last one on 05/09/23), at the time of the interview there was no job opening and I got the interview through another division. Last week I received an email saying that they will let me know their final decision by the end of this week. Today I have received an email (with the job description attached) scheduling a call in few days for sharing the decision. Do they want to reject me on call?
