Pros

Entrepreneurial culture that encourages innovate thinking. This is particularly rewarding for those that want to develop something unique from their career. It also fosters and environment where people are always willing to offer their time and expertise. As a result, there are a variety of career paths available here.

Cons

Some might say that the pace of agency life here is not for everyone. It’s not exactly a flat structure but the entrepreneurial values do mean that you get back what you put in. And while there are a variety of resources available for growth and development, the onus is on the individual to determine that path they want to make.

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.
