Pros

Great benefits, fun co-workers, nice offices, allows for work/life balance, decent variety of projects and clients.

Cons

During the last few months of my employment there wasn't much new work coming in which was unfortunate and those projects that did come in weren't very challenging. I suppose in hindsight that's not surprising considering the state right now of the tech companies we worked with in the embed model. Also people were nice and easy to get along with, there was definitely a disjointed connection among different agencies working together. I guess that's expected though since the merging and acquisition is still relatively new.

Pros

Good pay. Started as a solid brand with talented coworkers.

Cons

No real upward mobility or promotion opportunity. Higher-level senior management is disconnected from creative leadership and tends to gamble a bit too much with client relationships. Agency promises a lot of benefits and growth opportunities for employees that do not come to fruition. When budgets get tight, they cut creative teams regardless of whether the account and employee have been performing well for the agency.
