Thanks for your feedback. The people are my favorite thing about Edelman, too. They energize and inspire me daily! I'd like to better understand your observation about salary and advancement opportunities. While we always aim to prioritize gender equity (and created GWEN, the Global Women's Executive Network, to support our female leaders with advancement), we're constantly looking for more opportunities to exceed the mark for women at Edelman. If you feel comfortable, please reach out to me to share more. Maria O'Keeffe, Executive Director US HR

Pros

I worked with some of the brightest and best people in the business. Most of them are no longer with the company. Some good clients, and nice office space.

Cons

Very limited opportunities for growth. During my time they reduced promotions to only once a year, and made many excuses for promoting as few people as possible (despite becoming the first "$1B" agency at that time). Morale was extremely low. People were forced to come into an office with nobody they actually worked with. Common to be passed from manager to manager. At one point I had 6+ managers within a 10-month span.
