Pros

Some great people. Very understanding of personal needs and even career goals. If you have a good mentor it can be a great place to grow and learn. There are some very experienced and talented people who are fun to work with. The benefits are fantastic and for the most part you aren't worked to the bone like some other agencies.

Cons

Executive nightmare. They need a change in leadership. Some of the problem figureheads have exited so there is a glimmer of hope, but the company seems to be driving blind. Management is living in the golden age of the big agencies and has forgotten, or don't know how to roll their sleeves up and get things done. Thus a bunch of great efforts by employees go to waste because of lack of leadership and organization.

Pros

Some of the most dedicated people I've ever met. Extremely talented for the most part.

Cons

Top management irresponsible and squandering what money the office manages to bring in. Fires the most dedicated people in the company, who produce excellent work. Employees are underpaid and overworked.

Pros

Some of the most hard-working, decicated, sincere, people in the advertising world. This applies ONLY to the working class grades such as tech director, user experience directors, art directors, flash developers, project & account management folks. Upper management is a whole different story. The is only reason WhittmanHart gets two stars. Without some of the great people that work there and make work enjoyable, it would be 1 star.

Cons

It's a rudderless ship management is not capable of fixing. And even if fixed, the path to any destination is not evident. They are roughly a 10 year old organization that remains in start-up mode. Over the 10 years, they have reorganized (unsuccessfully) countless times. They have also changed names and bought other companies to grow the business. For example, remember MarchFirst? US WebCK? These are just some of its past failed incarnations and business purchases. Unfortunaley, with each purchase, the company has lost the bulk of accounts and projects it's acquired through the purchase. The bread and butter of the agency (and what has and currently keeps WhittmanHart alfoat) is Harley-Davidson. With little to no new business wins, Harley-Davidson sales in severe decline, and an unusually high turnover rate for employees, this ship may not stay afloat much longer.
