Pros

Colleagues are good but turnover is so high, you won't see them for long. Office just renovated , food nearby quite nice and good variety. Overall ok for a first agency experience but leave as soon as you find better opportunities out there

Cons

Director never around, no mentorship provided, always away on personal appointments. Even clients are fed up that she is missing.. junior staff have to answer for her.. digital team already so overworked but new accounts + pro bono work just keep adding on.. too stressful here with no regard for employee's wellbeing, a lot of lip service but no real steps taken to manage workloads.. Director a lot of the time out of touch with the team and the work and industry trends. Agency leadership also not as progressive and forward thinking as what is written on website.. bewware..

Conducive environment recently renovated nice colleagues and decent bosses

Cons

standard over work due to nature of being in PR/Marketing work life balance not too great but again it’s just the nature of the job
