Pros
Cons
Pros & Cons are excerpts from user reviews. They are not authored by Glassdoor.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Loved working here great environment
Cons
There are not many cons
Continue reading - Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I've only been at H+K for a year and love the company culture. I genuinely like almost all of my colleagues, which I feel like is not very common. When I went on bereavement, the company was so supportive and took care of me and my family.
Cons
Not always as competitive with pay as some of the other big ten PR firms - does not help that they are owned by a huge company, WPP, which controls so much of the pay/benefits
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
-Nice to have snacks in the office -401k benefit is good for early-career staffers -Clear timeline for promotion (but not worth staying that long)
Cons
-I've worked and interned at a number of communications-oriented roles. Nowhere have I worked with people more gossipy and mean than those at H&K. There's a nasty culture that runs deep here, at least in the NYC office -Criminally underpaid for New York City. If you're early career and you want to make it in PR, you basically have to have rich parents -No thought put into career development or mentorship. Senior staffers will assign you the busy, unfulfilling work they don't want to do and will put no thought into trying to make the experience worthwhile for you -Head out and buy lunch? Go grab a coffee? Expect that to be deducted from your timesheet. They want you on the clock all the time
Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
You get paid and they have good health benefits as a result of being a WPP company. It depends who you report.
Cons
Lots and lots of incompetent people in leadership. The attrition rate is insane I would only take this job if you dont have any other options.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Good pay and bonuses is a plus
Cons
Bad Managment not organized at all
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros

Salary, potential for weekend work
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros

Cons
Often long hours Managers can be very close-minded No investment in internal talent
- Former Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
The people are the best. I feel fortunate that i got to work with some of the best in the Communications industry.
Cons
none- its an amazing place
Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great teammates, excellent client work, and incredibly supportive environment.
Cons
Average benefits, long hours, and pay could be more competitive
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
The environment is friendly and welcoming. My coworkers and supervisors were always ready to help me when needed and made sure I knew that no question is a stupid one. The company is big on inclusion and diversity.
Cons
The only downside is the lack of work life balance. Agency life is known to come with long hours so I guess that might be why it is so normal to everyone but it can be extremely grueling.
