- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great agency that doesn't try to run it's creatives into the ground.
Cons
There is unfortunately little room for growth at this office.
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Work space is amazing, most of the people were very cool
Cons
The Credit / Finance team was so different than the other teams at Leo, they were very cold and unwelcoming, my manager had no interest in training me and when I was falling behind, sat me down and told me it wasn't going well instead of trying to help. I wasted 3 months here trying to learn without help.

Pros
As a while, the agency has a lot going for it, decent pay, good benefits, classes for employee betterment, and the culture-building has been making a huge revamp since I started in 2016.
Cons
Accounts and thoehr senior management have too much power to make all the culture-building from the agency feel useless. i have seen really positive culture within the different brands but I have also seen heartless disregard for your emotional and professional well being. I recommend never taking the foot in the door approach and hope for the best, be clear about what you want at the interview, and if you do not get hired it is for the best because you were too much of what we need.

Pros
Overall, culture is great, very inspiring and vibrant workplace.
Cons
No growth opportunity, have been working for 6 years. Too many office politics games and people in charge promote people based on friendship and relationship and not based on your skills

Pros
I found no real pros that would outweigh the Cons.
Cons
Work-Life balance is non-existent and they suffer from groupthink.
Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Leo Burnett is an amazing place. The people that work there are top notch and the passion they have is unlike any other. True collaboration and creative thinking is at the company core. What is even better - leadership. I was always cared for, looked out for and taught amazing skills to better myself. I was given amazing opportunity and challenged everyday with total support.
Cons
There are pros/cons that come with a large public company and while it seems like there is a lot of 'red tape' there is a huge sense of security and processes that ensure stability.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Big brands experience. Decent history. Some passionate creatives.
Cons
Lack of creative leadership. (Safer work) Lack of compensation no matter how long you work. Lack of creative mentorship, diversity, and inclusion. Can't even remember we've ever made a creatively driven awesome work! :(

- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★

- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Great people and benefits. some of the smartest folks i’ve met.
Cons
Promotions and raises are hard to come by, no matter how good your review. Leadership have turned over recently so that may not be the case. Lots of good people left to move up.
